08.07.05

A new book that offers a behind-the-scenes look at the hit Broadway musical Wicked will be released by Hyperion this fall.

On Oct. 26, "Wicked: The Grimmerie" is set to hit bookstores across the country. David Cote's tome is designed to resemble the Grimmerie, the book of spells that Elphaba uses in the Stephen Schwartz musical.

The 192-page hardcover book will includes profiles of the cast and creative team, full-color Joan Marcus photos of the show, an "Ozian" glossary, spells, the musical's libretto, a family tree as well as a step-by-step look at the "greenifying" of Elphaba.

"Wicked: The Grimmerie" has a list price of $40. The book can be pre-ordered on Amazon.com for $26.40.
