MAKING WICKED: RETURN TO OZ

A behind-the-scenes journey

Let his flesh not be torn, let his blood leave no stain
Though they beat him, let him feel no pain
Let his bones never break, and however they try to destroy him
Let him never die, let him never die

Fiyero: "Excuse me, there's no pretense here. I happen to be genuinely self-absorbed and deeply shallow."
Elphaba: "No you're not."

WICKED (2024)

In the original novel of "The Wizard of Oz" the slippers were silver but for the 1939 film they changed the slippers to ruby as they were more vibrant on screen, especially against the yellow brick road. The film adaptation of "Wicked" has a little nod to the ruby slippers, which became iconic in their own right.
