      When Elphaba and Glinda enter the Emerald City, Glinda hands the guards her coat as she exists the train. She is not wearing it for much of 'One Short Day'. However, when she and Elphaba enter the Wizard's palace she is once again wearing her coat.

    Better than expected

    Got to see a few hours ago in IMAX which was magnificent even my sister was there and I'm pretty she loved it! Wicked should be up for awards especially for set design, acting and directing are all great aspects. I'm generally not a fan of musicals but glad I saw this wild ride a couple days before the wide release.

    Cynthia and Ariana Grande were exceptional throughout they both deserve praise for their performances/exciting vibes! I had a long day I was little achy that was my complication otherwise this was delightful charming gem that will most likely be appreciated by most audiences as should be.
