About
Since premiering at Broadway’s Gershwin Theatre in 2003, WICKED has been mesmerizing audiences and breaking records, becoming the second highest-grossing musical in Broadway history with over $1.4 billion in tickets sold. Composer-lyricist Stephen Schwartz and book writer Winnie Holzman’s magical “untold true story of the Witches of Oz” has been nominated for 10 Tony Awards — winning three — including Idina Menzel for Best Actress in a Musical as heroine Elphaba. With a captivating score that includes the hits “Defying Gravity” and “For Good,” the WICKED cast album won Best Musical Show Album at the 47th Grammy Awards, with Time magazine cheering, “If every musical had a brain, a heart, and the courage of WICKED, Broadway really would be a magical place.” In addition to Menzel, the star-studded original cast included Kristin Chenoweth as Glinda, Norbert Leo Butz as Fiyero, Joel Grey as the Wizard, Carole Shelley as Madame Morrible, Christopher Fitzgerald as Boq, Michelle Federer as Nessarose, and William Youmans as Doctor Dillamond. WICKED is also the fourth longest-running show in Broadway history.

by Expatkat on 12/25/19Gershwin Theatre - New YorkI had been wanting to see Wicked for several years and finally had the opportunity to see the Broadway performance. The set was amazing and our seats were perfect. We sat in Orchestra row W seats 13 & 15. The view was great, the back row of the orchestra section seemed to be at a higher slant allowing an unobstructed view. The actresses who portrayed Elphaba and Glinda were amazing and drew the audience into the play. The costumes were done in a colorful steampunk style and the 2 hr 45 min run time flew by in no time. If you don’t see any other play in Broadway, you have to see Wicked.
