Wicked's New Song: Elphaba's Resistance
Update: 2026-01-03
Description
Stephen Schwartz, the creative mind behind Wickeds music, reveals new song details for the upcoming Wicked: For Good. His song for Glinda, Girl in the Bubble, came effortlessly, while No Place Like Home for Elphaba required extensive work. The team aimed to showcase Elphabas deep love for Oz, despite its rejection, and her heartbreaking sacrifice. Winnie Holzman suggested a pivotal scene where Elphaba convinces animals to stay, which evolved throughout the second act. Early drafts of No Place Like Home included more scenes, but the core moment with the animals was kept for maximum impact. Cynthia Erivo, who plays Elphaba, describes it as a beautiful song of resistance, and fans eagerly await its theatrical debut. Checkout Solipillow.com
