Wicked at Eccles Theater

So much happened before Dorothy! This is part of the story you’re going to get to witness at Wicked. This musical has become almost as well known as the original, and that’s saying something because who’s never heard of The Wizard of Oz? Drama, intrigue, and some of the most impressive musical numbers that Broadway has ever witnessed are a part of this story. It’s actually the stage design, though, that blends everything together. Theater enthusiasts will tell you that the best plays are the ones that are able to take you into their world from the moment the show starts. Wicked makes sure the crowd knows that they are not in Kansas anymore, but, in fact, in the land of OZ.

How the play portrays the events of the original Wizard of OZ story is a major part of the success. You’re getting a perspective that you would have never considered, especially from the original children’s book that everything is pretty much based on. The light and the darkness are represented with the two witches, and of course, this battle between the two inside a complex dynamic is what fuels the Wicked narrative! Definitely, not the kid’s show that the Wizard of OZ intended to be. Crowds couldn’t be more thrilled that this storyline is not afraid to focus on darker themes. At the end of the day this is a story about two witches. They have to have their darker sides, even the one that’s closer to the "right path"! The story that wowed Broadway for seasons upon season is now on tour, and this is your chance to catch it live in Salt Lake City, Utah

The George S. and Dolores Dore Eccles Theater is an ideal place to witness a show like this. You can bet that the production team will be able to craft the World of OZ on this stage and make it visible to everyone in the crowd this night. Of course, not every spot in the theater is created equal. As is the case for most of these theatrical productions, you may be better off finding a seat toward the middle of the venue, a few rows back from the stage. From here, you’ll have the perfect perspective from which to see Wicked. Click that get tickets link now to be a part of the fun on Wednesday 30th April 2025. Tickets are starting at only $279!
