Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Complete the lyric. "No one mourns the_____________ "

Answer: wicked

 "No one cries: 'They won't return!'" "No one lays a lily on their grave".
2. "Have another drink, my dark eyed beauty I've got one more night left, here in town So have another drink of green elixir And we'll have ourselves a little mixer Have another little swallow, little lady, And follow me down..." Who sings this lyric?

Answer: The Mother's Lover

 It's true that the Wizard and the Lover are later discovered to be the same person, but at this point, he is the Lover, not the Wizard.
3. Which is the first song the "Unlimited..." set of lyrics appear in?

Answer: The Wizard and I

 "Thank Goodness" is the only song that the "Unlimited..."lyrics don't appear in.
4. "And one day he'll say to me: 'Elphaba, a girl who is so superior, Shouldn't a girl who's so good inside have a ---" What comes next?

Answer: matching exterior

 Stephen Schwartz also did "Pippin" and it is so obvious when you look at the parallels between those songs and these. This one almost directly corresponds to "Corner of the Sky", or the 'I Want Song' by the musical play formula.
5. What is Elphaba's problem with Galinda in "What is this feeling?"

Answer: She's blonde

 While Elphaba tells her Father she doesn't like Galinda because she's Blonde, Galinda tells her parents that Elphaba is "Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe..." instead of just saying she is green.
6. "The trouble with schools is ___." What comes next?

Answer: They always try to teach the wrong lesson

 Going back to the correlations between "Wicked" and "Pippin", this one goes right to the one Bertha sings. I think the name is "In No Time at All".
7. According to Fiyero in "Dancing Through Life", what do schools want you to become?

Answer: less callow and less shallow

 In the book by Gregory Maguire, Fiyero is not at all like he is in the play. The character of Fiyero in the play is the character of Averic in the book. Averic shows up in the play as the guy who drops Fiyero at Shiz.
8. "I'll teach you the proper ploys when you talk to boys, little ways to..." What comes next?

Answer: flirt and flounce

 This song is one of the many reasons Kristin Chenoweth is a musical theater goddess.
9. "I wasn't born for the..." What comes next?

Answer: rose and pearl

 "Theres a girl I know
He loves her so
I'm not that girl..."
10. What will Glinda and Elphaba be late for in "One Short Day"?

Answer: Wizomania

 Don't you love those guys during Wizomania whose heads pop up and make them look like Tweedle-Dee and Tweedle-Dum?
11. "Something has changed within me Something is not the same I'm through with playing..." What comes next?

Answer: by the rules of someone else's game

 "Too late for second-guessing
Too late to go back to sleep
It's time to trust my instincts
close my eyes
and leap!"
12. "Dreams the way we planned 'em" "If we work (in) ..." What word goes there?

Answer: tandem

 Glinda doesn't go with Elphaba. Can you imagine the story if she had???
13. If you care to find Elphaba at the end of "Defying Gravity", where would you look?

Answer: The western sky

 "As someone told me lately
Everyone deserves a chance to fly!"
14. What is the name of the first new song (not a reprise) in the second act?

Answer: Thank Goodness

 "Defying Gravity" ends the first act, "A Sentimental Man" comes just before "Defying Gravity" and "Wonderful" comes after "Thank Goodness". The first song in the second act is a reprise of "No One Mourns the Wicked," which also opens the first act.
15. "A man's called a___________ -- or_____________"What are the missing words?

Answer: traitor, liberator

 I saw Joel Grey as the Wizard. For a guy his age, he still moves very well.
16. "A rich man's a __________--or ______________" What are the missing words?

Answer: thief, philanthropist

 The whole concept of "spin" is illustrated in this song.
17. "I'm Not That Girl" is sung at two different times in the show. Who sings it the second time?

Answer: Glinda

 At this point, she has changed her name from Galinda to Glinda, in honor of the disappearance of their Animal professor Dr. Dillamond.
18. "Kiss me too ___________ Hold me too ___________ I need help believing You're with me tonight" What are the missing words?

Answer: fiercely, tight

 I think this is such a passionate song. More passionate then most love songs on Broadway get, without getting humorous.
19. "Maybe I'm brainless Maybe I'm wise But you've got me seeing Through different eyes." When did Elphaba begin to make Fiyero see through different eyes?

Answer: When he helped her free the lion cub from class

 It's really cool the way Magurie tied "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz" into the book. The way he also ties in the Scarecrow in by saying that Fiyero may have been turned into him. According to the book, he wasn't, but according to the play, he was.
20. "Like a ______ pulled from _______ as it passes the _____" What are the missing words (in the correct order)?

Answer: comet, orbit, sun

 I hope that you enjoyed taking my quiz! If you haven't yet, read the book "Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West" by Gregory Maguire. It's not quite the same as the play, but I guarantee you will enjoy it!
