Video: Explore Elphaba and Glinda's Dorm Room in New WICKED Promo

A new Wicked promo video has just dropped, featuring a closer look at Glinda and Elphaba's Shiz University dorm room. Hosted by Wicked director Jon M. Chu, the video explores how the two characters use their space to reflect their personalities- or, rather, Glinda's personality.

"In a dorm room, you don't have much closet space. But maybe [Glinda's bags] become her closet," Chu explains. The video reveals Glinda's "closet bags" are actually contraptions that contain her clothes, shoes, and other beauty products. They fill up the corners of the shared room, becoming a kind of maze that Elphaba has to navigate. Watch the video now and head over to the Shiz University website to explore the dorm room further!
