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.

Rating: 5 out of 5 Wicked was Wicked audience was annoying
by Red1313 on 1/7/14Gershwin Theatre - New YorkI have seen Wicked 3 times now and NYC was amazing. My only problem was that the audience was annoying. From coming in late to munching during the show. The way the audience was I thought that maybe I went to the wrong theater and maybe I was watching a movie that only cost 12-15 dollars. I was just surprised that such a classy theater would allow eating in the theater.

by StanleyGirls on 1/7/14Gershwin Theatre - New YorkMy 14 year old daughter asked for tickets for Christmas so I got one for her 12 year old sister and I. We were third row back and it was an incredible experience for her first Broadway show. The characters were so close and the monkeys were right above us. The music and acting was great. We LOVED it and she wants to make it an annual trip to NYC now!

by msvan on 1/7/14Gershwin Theatre - New Yorkonly one criticism, i had a boy behind me that kicked my chair for 31/2 hrs non stop, and his mother only said he has a problem, i felt she should have gotten a seat assigned to him that could consider that fact, she was not very considerate of anyone else. that was so annoying and the person seating us woulnd't do anything about it either.
