"Wicked fans have just discovered that American actress Billie Burke, who played Glinda the Good Witch of the North, reportedly had a queer romance with director Dorothy Arzner."
"Though Burke was married to theatre impresario Florenz Ziegfeld Jr. for almost 20 years, after his death, she pursued other relationships, including a rumored romance with Dorothy Arzner."
"With the chemistry between Elphaba and Glinda so powerful, fans have coined the term 'Gelphie', highlighting the queer undertones in Wicked and The Wizard of Oz."
"Jon M Chu's musical adaptation of Wicked has found a new audience, reigniting interest in the queer mythology surrounding the characters and their relationships."
