Good Witch Glinda

The Wiz reinterprets the Good Witch Glinda to resemble the Virgin Mary as she's often depicted in art. Glinda wears a long, sparkling blue robe and matching veil that only reveals a small portion of her hair paired with a crown of stars. She's only ever seen on a starry backdrop surrounded by floating babies that resemble attendant cherubs. These innocent children are the only characters Glinda is even seen on-screen with, adding to her etherealness. Glinda's personality also bears resemblance to the Madonna Archetype, being a very maternal and graceful sort of character.
