Wicked will return to Apollo Theatre from September
Tickets for Stephen Schwartz’s hit musical, which is marking its 15th anniversary, will go on sale on May 17
Stephen Schwartz’s hit musical Wicked, which tells the story behind the Witches of Oz, is set to return to London’s Apollo Victoria Theatre from
15 September.
Tickets for the popular show, which marks its 15th anniversary at the West End venue later this year, go on sale from 17 May.
Wicked imagines a beguiling backstory and future possibilities to the lives of L. Frank Baum’s beloved characters from The Wonderful Wizard of Oz and reveals the decisions and events that shape the destinies of two unlikely university friends on their journey to becoming Glinda The Good and the Wicked Witch of the West.
Schwartz’s music and lyrics are accompanied by a book by Winnie Holzman, creator of American television series, My So-Called Life. The musical is based on Gregory Maguire’s multi-million-copy bestseller, Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West.
The award-winning show has been seen by more than 10 million people in London alone and played almost 6,000 performances.
