![Disability in WICKED [CC]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/v5Tr0Jx4l5k/hqdefault.jpg "Disability in WICKED [CC]
In honor of Wickeds 20th anniversary, I decided to deep dive into the show (and its source material) to analyze disability narratives, particularly with Nessarose, Glinda, and Elphaba, and see what we can learn about modernizing this show by looking at these characters through a disability lens. Or, rather, bringing back the disability lens under which they were initially created that we forgot about. Because, at the end of the day, everyone deserves the chance to fly ;)
*I know I said Stephen Sondheim instead of Stephen Schwartz at 21:18, my apologies, I didnt catch that slip until captioning and I am not re-editing and uploading this video to fix that, Sondheim had nothing to do with this show, I just got my Stephens a lil scrambled lol
