WICKED, the Broadway sensation, looks at what happened in the Land of Oz…but from a different angle. Long before Dorothy arrives, there is another girl, born with emerald-green skin—smart, fiery, misunderstood, and possessing an extraordinary talent. When she meets a bubbly blonde who is exceptionally popular, their initial rivalry turns into the unlikeliest of friendships…until the world decides to call one “good,” and the other one “wicked.”
With a thrilling score that includes the hits “Defying Gravity,” “Popular” and “For Good,” WICKED has been hailed by The New York Times as “the defining musical of the decade.” Time Magazine cheers, “if every musical had the brain, the heart, and the courage of WICKED, Broadway really would be a magical place.”
From the first electrifying note to the final breathtaking moment, WICKED—the untold true story of the Witches of Oz—transfixes audiences with its wildly inventive story. It will send your spirits soaring to heights you’ll never forget.
Incredible sets, lighting, makeup, costuming. Funny and heartwarming story with great singing and acting. Would whole heartedly recommend it!!
We felt like we heard two of the greatest singers on the planet! The ladies playing Elpheba and Glinda were astonishingly good! Tickets were very pricey, more than typical for a touring Broadway show...almost passed on the show because of this.
THE FIRST HALF WAS A KNOCK OUT WITH THE FUN AND PLAYING ON DIFFERENT WORDS AND SITUATIONS. THERE WAS A LOT OF ENERGY AND ACTION . THE SECOND HALF SEEMED TO LOOSE SOME OF THE SPARK AND KIBITZING OF THE FIRST HALF AND THE PACE SEEMED TO SLOW DOWN. PERHAPS THE ACTORS WERE GETTING TIRED BECAUSE THERE STAY IN EDMONTON WAS ALMOST OVER. BUT IT WAS A FUN TIME AND I ENJOYED IT.
This was the second time I've seen Wicked. It was just as good as the first time. The set is beautiful and the story is interesting and fun. Most importantly, the singing is amazing and brings tears to my eyes. I am so grateful to have witnessed such wonderfully talented performers.
Excellent show - over 2-1/2 hrs long, never dragged. Fantastic singers- loved it.
Love the show!! I have seen it three times, and will continue to see it as long as it's in a close location:)
I had fun at this event, Glinda was sooo funny!! The whole show was funny, charming and a pleasure to attend.
The story was good, the set was good, the voices were awesome and the players were very entertaining. Maybe just quite not my type of show though.
After all the rave reviews from people we know it was a must to see. The play and players were excellent, except, the sound left much to be desired. Cast as a whole exceptionally loud and unintelligible for the most part. Solo did not have this same problem. Staging was great though.
Enjoyed everything about this show! I would love to see it again and again!!
One of the best productions I have ever attended, better than most I have seen on Broadway.
Great show very entertaining would recommend it to anyone of all ages
amazing production...loved everything about it and would see it again!
Yes, I would recommend this event to many of my friends. My children and I very much enjoyed it. My 7 yr old son was on the edge of his seat. He loved it.
Excellent show I would recommend this performance to friends.
So enjoyed Wicked it's an amazing performance and a fantastic thing to see on a date night !!
Excellent show. Just as good as the last time it came to town.
My friends and I really enjoyed the show. We did not know exactly what the storyline was until we saw it. Thoroughly recommend going to see it.
Excellent show. I was up on the first balcony this time (last time was down near the stage) and I think this afforded me a better overall view of the stage. Voices were very good. Actors were incredible.
I found this to be a very interesting and fast paced story that is suitable for all ages.
