  • This is a clip from the Warner Theatre's Summer 1990 performance of The Wizard of Oz. The scene is the melting of the Wicked Witch Of The West, uploaded by popular request.
    Apologies for the quality, but when you record on a low-end VHS camera, wait 17 years, and then upload it through a TV tuner card, things can be lost.

    This is awesome! They actually tried to make the witch look like the original in the wizard of oz. their voice even sounded very alike. I admire the efforts seeing as Margaret Hamilton is no longer alive!

    coolcat: But she LIVES! The 90's toon, the musical version of Wicked, and her fanbase keeps her around (plus, as I said, like any "good villain" [double double meaning], Elphie will ALWAYS find a way to return).

    @BrideofthePhantom I agree. The Wicked Witch was not Elphaba back in 1939. She was always evil.

    Also, in 1990, there was a short-lived one-season cartoon, in which Dorothy came back to Oz to help her friends save The Wizard. Oddly, the show's villain was a revived Wicked Witch, as Christery/Nikko/Truckle (whomever he's called) and remaining others revived her and she used the Wicked West Wind to blow The Wizard off-course whilst she stole Scarecrow's diplomatic brains, Tin Man's heart, and Lion's medal of courage, reverting the three back to how they were before they got those items.

    @pytko3 15 років тому +1

    I used to wonder why the guards were so mean, but then praised Dorothy for killing the witch. Then I learned that the guards that served her were only mean because of the witch's evil magic hold on them. When the witch died, so did the evilness in the people and creatures that served her.

    Patsluvs: Baum's witch was an un-named one-eyed hunchback. Wicked is based on the MGM film, which is in itself, different from its book inspiration.
    egallity: The thing is...the Baum book is radically different from the MGM film that inspired Wicked. Besides, with Baum dead and Oz pretty much in public domain (since Gregory wrote Wicked using characters from the MGM version of Baum's tale), Wicked can be a prequel as long as its creators say it can be (and they do).

    Elphie is, but the Wicked Witch of the West isn't.
    Remember, this is a different story, as it was originally written.

  • @TherealRNOwwfpooh
    @TherealRNOwwfpooh 15 років тому +1

    Anyway...what this all means is that though they're all inspired by the original Baum book, the MGM film and subsequently, the 1990 cartoon and Maguire's Wicked are all different from the book that inspired it all. Thus, since Oz is in public domain and its creator's desendants probably allowed Maguire to use creative license, if Maguire wishes to have his book be a prequel & continuation to the MGM film, then so be it, because really, all Wicked is is another side of the all-too-famous story.

  • @Dusterian
    @Dusterian 15 років тому +1

    If you read Baum's book, and Wicked, you would know Gregory Maguire based Elphaba on Baum's original witch as well, including having bees and wolves go after Dorothy and her friends.
    MGM doesn't think Margaret Hamilton's witch had any good intentions. When Margaret played her, she didn't play the witch as having Elphie's past. Elphaba is a re-imagining of the witch, and Wicked is an imagining of a possible past, a possible prequel.

    You know what? When Disney did a read-along book of this tale, it was drawn ala the original Baum book and therefore, included the silver shoes, Tattypoo (the ORIGINAL Good Witch of the North), the bees, the wolf-like hounds, crows, et al. However, the songs included in the story were from the MGM film wherein the silver shoes became ruby slippers, Tattypoo and Glinda were merged, and Wicked Witch only used The Jitterbug, Winged Monkeys, and Winkie Guards, as her civil servants.

  • @BackOfTheHearse

    I invite you to check out the other video I have up of her in Munchkinland. I think you might change your mind. You have to understand, this was a guest dress rehearsal, and the timing was not properly worked out with the water, dialogue, and the people running the trapdoor. They moved to fast, so she had to breeze through the lines before she disappeared.

  • @charlessmith263

    Well, if I were the stage prop manager, although the pyrotechnic effect of the Witch's "fire" was pretty good, I would have put real water in a small bucket, so that when the bucket was thrown at the witch, it would be like real water, she gets wet, and you know what happens when the Wicked Witch gets hit with water--she melts, like what happened here.

  • @coolcat1996
    @coolcat1996 16 років тому +1

    the Wicked Witch of the West isn't actually wicked, Glinda wanted to tell everyone that Elphaba wasn't a bad parson, but Elphaba knew that everyone would turn against her and kill Glinda but Elphaba told Glinda not to tell anyone that bacuase then Glinda would die, so instead, Elphaba wanted Glinda to live and she would die.

    • @bigred8432
      @bigred8432 6 років тому

      Wrong. Wicked is not officially joined with The Wizard of Oz in any way. It’s simply one adaptation. It’s the same as fan fiction, not canon

  • @TherealRNOwwfpooh
    @TherealRNOwwfpooh 16 років тому +2

    This is where I disagree and stay true to the book and MGM film, because it seems to flow better that Elphie was killed and then--through magic--was revived. The 90's 'toon proved her resurrection possible, years before "Wicked".

  • @BackOfTheHearse
    @BackOfTheHearse  17 років тому +1

    I don't think that's really all too feasible. I'll upload some more clips (highlight songs and such) if I get time, but the whole thing would be a lot of work my computer cannot handle right now.

    Thankfully (despite claims otherwise), Wicked CAN--IMO--still be a prequel (and continuation) of the film despite inconsistancies, because Elphie went insane anyway (in both the book and musical [not so much in the latter, though])...so some of her stuff may've been made up (for example, I would like to think that Elphie DID die, but like all GOOD VILLIANS can NOT truly be killed, hence her revival...just like the 90's cartoon that was also based on the MGM classic).

    AmuseMe: Look up "Wizard of Oz (1990)". It was produced by ABC. 'Tis just too bad that, in the cartoon, Elphie STILL is batty and wanting to stop Dorothy--who comes back--from doing good (in this case, saving the Wizard from the 'wicked' sense of justice Elphaba has).
