r/wicked on Reddit: Are the scarecrow, tin man, and cowardly lion aware of who they are?
December 4, 2024 -
Ok I’m having a tough time properly phrasing the question, my words aren’t wording right now so forgive me.
What i mean is, does the scarecrow know that the tin man is Boq? Does the tin man know that the scarecrow is Fiyero? Are they just pretending to not know each other for the sake of Dorothy, or do they really just not recognize each other and assume they’re strangers?
I guess that includes the wizard too since Fiyero worked for him. Does he not know that the scarecrow is his once trusted captain of the guard (or whatever he was)?
In the musical, Boq seems to know who the cowardly lion is and his backstory with Elphaba, or at least the version they believe where she kidnapped him instead of saving him.
Maybe that question will be answered in part 2, idk. I’m just wondering if maybe it’s mentioned anywhere in the book or something?

In the novel, only the lion has the actual connection. I’ll give you book spoilers if you want, but I want to ask first lol. In the musical, I believe they do know who one another are, because the spells turning them into who they are are said out loud in the audience’s presence.

So in the movie at the start, you see Dorothy, the cowardly lion and scarecrow and tin man walking on the yellow brick road, so obviously in the musical, Boq gets turned into a tin man and Fiyero gets turned into a scarecrow so the thing that confuses me is does this mean that the scarecrow and the tin man you see at the start of the movie is meant to be Boq and Fiyero?

Spoiler, ahead. Yes, the tinman and scarecrow are boq and fiyero. When we see the Fab Four (five including Toto) we are seeing boq and fiyero. That makes the horse rider a red herring. Who could it be? It’s an obvious deviation from the way the stage musical ending is set that, I believe, will work in the films favor. I bet the horse rider is Elphaba, going to meet Fiyero after faking her death

In the musical Wicked, Fiyero becomes the scarecrow, and Boq becomes the tin man. Who becomes the lion? - Quora
Answer (1 of 2): Elphaba frees a lion cub from Shiz during the first act. Boq tells the chorus he becomes the cowardly because he never learned to fight for himself, since Elphaba fought the lion’s fights for him. Once again, Elphaba’s good intentions and deeds are lost on the citizenry.
