WICKED THE MUSICAL
Co-presented by Dubai Opera and Broadway Entertainment Group
A true global phenomenon, WICKED, the most popular musical in the world, follows the incredible journey that unfolds long before Dorothy’s iconic arrival in Oz. It’s the story of two remarkable young women. Glinda is beautiful, ambitious, and admired; Elphaba is brilliant yet misunderstood with emerald-green skin. What begins as an unlikely friendship soon becomes a riveting rivalry that shapes their destinies as Glinda the Good and the Wicked Witch of the West.
WICKED has captivated more than 65 million theatregoers across over 130 cities in 16 countries; bringing more than 100 performers, crew, and orchestra members. See breath-taking sets, over 350 stunning costumes, and show-stopping musical numbers, including “Defying Gravity,” “Popular,” and “For Good.”
A spellbinding story of sisterhood, identity, and empowerment, WICKED is the smash-hit musical by composer Stephen Schwartz, book writer Winnie Holzman, and based on the novel by Gregory Maguire.
