Wicked at Orpheum Theatre San Francisco

What does it take to be branded as wicked forever? Unquestionably, there's a story behind it. We all know that the wicked witch of the west was Dorothy's adversary; but way before all that, she was a misunderstood teenage witch named Elphaba. A slightly magical girl who developed an unusual bond of friendship with the blond young witch Galinda -- a friendship that reached a crossroad that took a turn on their lives and destinies. That's "Wicked"! Indeed, this is a spin-off from “The Wonderful Wizard of Oz” and is based on the 1995 Gregory Maguire novel “Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West.” Wicked is a Broadway musical performance, with music and lyrics by Stephen Schwartz and book by Winnie Holzman. It may be witchcraft or wizardry, but Wicked has cast a enchanting spell on critics and audiences alike. Collecting ten Tony Award nominations and four Olivier Award nominations, the original Broadway musical theater playmanaged to win three Tony Awards and seven Drama Desk Awards, along with Grammy Award for the original cast album, to boot. Music, magic, magnificence all rolled into one. Don't miss Wicked as it hits the stage of the Orpheum Theatre in San Francisco, California on Thursday 29th August 2024. Buy your tickets now!
