Ariana Grande may be one of the lead witches in the Broadway musical Wicked.

Ariana got her start on Broadway. She was in the show 13 in 2008, which had a short-lived run time on Broadway, and then was on the Hairspray Live production on NBC. She is not only in the process of recording her new album, but now has this big opportunity to get back to her Broadway roots in one of the most very well known shows.

The show Wicked is a prequel to The Wizard of Oz. The role Ariana Grande would play is Elphaba. This is a big deal because this role is a very coveted role in Broadway. Only a few people have had the honor of playing that role on Broadway. The people responsible for making this happen think it would be a great idea and that it would help pull in a younger audience as well.

Although this has not yet been confirmed, with Ariana Grande’s Broadway background it would not be a surprise if it were soon announced to be official.
