Wicked at Eccles Theater

In 1995 Gregory Maguire wrote the book, Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West, paving the way to create a brand-new musical and another trip back to the land of Oz.

Taking a deep dive into the show sheds-light on the truth behind Oz’s most iconic witches, leaving audiences around America mesmerized by this powerful story. The unlikely yet deep friendship between Elphaba and Glinda complicates the debate over “good vs. evil”. Elphaba, the infamous Wicked Witch of the West from The Wizard of Oz, turns out to be a surprisingly sympathetic and charming character.

With great songs like “Defying Gravity” and “Popular,” the musical delivers its heartfelt message in a way that leaves audiences feeling inspired.

Wicked debuted in San Francisco in 2003 before coming to Broadway later that year. Since that premiere, Wicked has gone onto to be one of the highest grossing musicals of all time! The show has earned in excess $1 billion in Broadway revenue and broke box office records across America.

Wicked has also earned numerous awards, including 3 Tony Awards, 7 Drama Desk Awards, and a Grammy.
