Star Wars Musical? How are you not being sued?

Wicket is no ordinary musical, it’s a parody musical . It came to life not just because someone made a bad pun, but also because we have something important to say.This is not a “comical version of the original”, this is a scathing criticism of the original that, on one hand, calls George Lucas to task for underrepresenting women, having zero minority actors (at least in the first movie), using film to sell toys, and narrative protectionism, and on the other hand satirizes Wicked as “under a stupid spell to retell and then sell a story we already knew…. like, but from a different point of view?” Yes, there are poop jokes, but there is also a subversive, meta-theatrical commentary on the monopolistic control of creative property while tackling the racism, sexism, and sizism that’s so often found in today’s culture.We know, we know, booooring! Still, we know a few cool lawyers (who knew?) who spent a good amount of time putting together a “parody analysis” of the show. It’s a total page turner that you can download a PDF of by clicking here
