Wicked

Year: 2003 — Present

Wicked: The Untold Story of the Witches of Oz is currently the 4th longest running Broadway show of all time. Based on Gregory Maguire’s 1995 novel Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the WestWicked is set before we meet Dorothy in L. Frank Baum’s classic book, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz.

The musical gives audiences a glimpse into the unlikely bond between Glinda, the “Good” witch and Elphaba, “the wicked witch of the west.” Despite opposing backgrounds, personalities and viewpoints the two become best friends while at school.  Their friendship is put to the test as they face corrupt government, romantic rivalries and their own ideas of what is “good.”

Winner of numerous Tony and Drama Desk Awards as well as a Grammy and multiple international awards and nominations, Wicked, has proven to be a worldwide sensation.

This San Francisco production marked the show’s pre-Broadway world premiere.
