After years of dreaming this day would arrive, finally the smash Broadway production of “Wicked” arrives in Grand Rapids for a fun-filled three weeks, making this one of the biggest and longest running touring shows to arrive in our city.
For those who have been living under a rock the last few years, “Wicked” is a musical that tells the story of “The Wizard of Oz’s" Glinda the Good and Elphaba, who in this production is a young, green girl who will go on to become the Wicked Witch of the West.
This family-friendly and visually stunning musical pre-dates the popular film “The Wizard of Oz,” so don’t look for Dorothy or her little dog, too.
What you will get is a true Broadway spectacular, which has won many awards but even more hearts. There are many show-stopping moments but the chance to see the thrilling “Defying Gravity" in our town is sure to take your breath away at DeVos Hall.
But don’t delay purchasing tickets, since “Wicked” has nearly sold out its entire three week run in our city.
