WICKED tells the story of an extraordinary friendship between two girls who meet at a school for witches in the magical land of Oz: Elphaba, unique and born with green skin, and Glinda, the beautiful and popular girl. After an unexpected encounter with the great Wizard of Oz, their friendship is tested as their views on reality, love, and deception are turned upside down in a world where nothing is quite as it seems…
Since its Broadway debut in 2003, WICKED has captivated audiences worldwide. The musical continues to run on Broadway in New York and in London’s West End and has been performed in over 100 cities, selling 60 million tickets globally.
In Denmark, WICKED was staged at Fredericia Musicalteater and Tivoli Concert Hall in Copenhagen in a completely reimagined Danish production with stunning new costumes, set design, and direction, all while preserving the cherished story and beloved music.
