00:00Oz represents a place of magic, so to be able to invite an audience into this beautiful world is really exciting.
00:13Welcome new students.
00:16Expect the unexpected.
00:20The things that you think are impossible, the things that you've been dreaming about aren't impossible at all.
00:28Absolutely remarkable.
00:31A magic wand.
00:33Galinda, just like Elphaba, wants to find her magic.
00:40Boggans!
00:42Seriously?
00:44Nothing is just one dimension in the world of Oz.
00:47Instead of going down, gravity can go up.
00:51That special magic is palpable.
00:53Oz is full of surprises too.
00:56Animals talk.
00:58Animals are no longer permitted to teach.
01:01What?
01:03You can't permit this.
01:04Elphaba, I'm afraid it's out of our hands.
01:09And so it becomes this really beautiful, unselfish crusade to help the animals.
01:15Oh.
01:17You're behind all of this.
01:19You have no right to do this.
01:22You have no real power.
01:24Exactly.
01:26That's why I need you.
01:30It isn't about relying on someone else, it really is about harnessing the power that she has.
01:35And figuring out how to use that to do good the way she needs to.
01:41That's the most magical part of the whole thing.
01:48You can do anything.
01:50I know.
