Jon M Chu & Stephen Schwarz On The Music Of Wicked

Soundtracking with Edith Bowman

Our latest guests on Soundtracking are director John M Chu and composer and lyricist Stephen Schwarz, who join me to discuss John's take on Stephen's classic stage show, Wicked. Set in the Land of Oz, largely before Dorothy's arrival from Kansas, it follows the story of Elphaba beginning her path to becoming the Wicked Witch of the West, and her unlikely friendship with her classmate Galinda, who becomes Glinda the Good. Cythia Erivo and Ariana Grande are knockout as the leads!
