Wicked the Uncommonly Romance
Wicked being known for its different view on the story The Wizard of Oz, can also be considered a romance. Not only does it "defy gravity", but it defies race, color, and societal views when it comes to the romance between Fiyero and Elphaba. While I have yet to see the musical, I have read the book, and it is phenomenal. Thou it does seem to hit all sorts of topics, the romance involved is one of a kind and at the same time relatable with people today. It discusses forbidden love, marriage, and interracial relationships. It questions and discusses everything. A musical with romance that not only shows love, but questions it also. So off you go to defy gravity and fall in love.
