MICHELLE YEOH as MADAME MORRIBLE

Wicked (2024) dir. Jon M. Chu

Sheryl Lee Ralph as Madam Morrible in Wicked. 2016.

I just read an article saying how the Wicked movies should keep Fiyero’s original ending from the novel, which I’m not going to spoil here but if you know you know. The reasoning was because it shows the true villainous nature of the Wizard (as if that’s not shown in the musical when he and Morrible killed Nessa and sent Dorothy to kill Elphaba), it would add more tragedy (as if what happens to Fiyero in the musical isn’t tragic enough), and it would add to Elphaba’s character (as if there isn’t more than enough to her character already, as if she needs more tragedy in her life, and as if Fiyero’s fate in the musical didn’t emotionally wreck her and the pain in No Good Deed is faked).

I think that the movies should, will, and are keeping Fiyero’s bittersweet fate of the musical. I’d also like to point out that the only reason Elphaba didn’t completely lose her mind and kill Dorothy is because she got the note from Fiyero saying he was alive and Boq and the rest of Oz were going to kill her. Him being captured, thinking she failed to save him, and then finding out he is in fact alive has such a heavy emotional toll on Elphaba, both tragically and relieving. Wicked is tragic in any form it takes. For anyone who has been forced to read a Greek play has learned the traits of a tragic hero, and basically everyone in this show has a tragic ending. Elphaba and Fiyero, though able to be together and have a life together, will never see Glinda again. Glinda thinks that her two best friends are dead, she probably feels guilty for Nessa’s death, and now has to act as if Elphaba was wicked just because she promised her she wouldn’t ruin her reputation. Boq has no heart and has basically lost everything in his life. Nessa died. And the Wizard, as horrible and villainous as he may be, lost his daughter.

If that’s not the true definition of tragic, then I don’t know what is.

(Basically, Fiyero’s fate won’t make the story tragic, it already is 💚)

Michelle Yeoh as Madame Morrible in “Wicked” (Film, 2024).

Pajamas I think Wicked the Musical characters would wear (I’m bored)

I can see Elphaba wearing these black ones with maybe some more sensible black slippers. I can also imagine her braiding her hair for bed (pink bow for G(a)Linda of course).

G(a)Linda would wear a frilly pink nightgown, I can imagine short sleeves and a lot of lace, I can also imagine her in one of those sleep masks with the fake eyelashes on them. These slippers kinda remind me of her too. I think she also might sleep with hair curlers and one of those mud masks(which matches her wife hehe. Plus the black lace on the sleep mask.)

Fiyero would wear overly expensive little rich boy pajamas. In the OG Oz books the favorite color of his country is yellow, so what better than gold? I can also imagine him having a canopy bed lol (he’s very “rich kid who’s parents don’t pay enough attention to him” core. Him and Glinda both, in fact, to be honest).

Boq would wear either this stripy blue button down two piece one or these goofy Victorian long underwear. He’d probably also have some fuzzy patterned socks. He 100% sleeps with a stuffed animal and you cannot convince me otherwise.

Nessa would wear something more modest (and probably more period accurate😅) and for some reason I can imagine her liking florals.

Dr Dillamond has Scrooge pajamas and bunny slippers.

Madam Morrible would wear an over the top extravagant nightgown with rich widow robe.

The wizard would also wear extravagant pajamas and a rich widow robe. Not to match Morrible. They just have the same taste.

My mom just showed me this photo and the sounds that came out of my mouth startled the two tables next to us. Lmao.

POLL FOR WICKED DAY!
