When WICKEDopened on Broadway, it worked its magic on critics and audiences alike.Winner of 35 major awards including a Grammy® and three Tony Awards®, WICKED is the untold story of the witches of Oz. Long before Dorothy drops in, two other girls meet in the Land of Oz, one born with emerald green skin, is smart, fiery and misunderstood. The other is beautiful, ambitious and very popular. WICKED tells the story of their remarkable odyssey, how these two unlikely friends grow to become the Wicked Witch of the Westand Glinda the Good. “The defining musical of the decade.” The New York Times Currently in its 9th year on Broadway, WICKED’s North American and International companies have cumulatively grossed over US$2.5 billion.
