About the show

About

So much happened before Dorothy dropped in. _Wicked_, the Broadway sensation, looks at what happened in the Land of Oz…but from a different angle. Long before Dorothy arrives, there is another girl, born with emerald-green skin—smart, fiery, misunderstood, and possessing an extraordinary talent. When she meets a bubbly blonde who is exceptionally popular, their initial rivalry turns into the unlikeliest of friendships… until the world decides to call one “good,” and the other one “wicked.” 
With a thrilling score that includes the hits “Defying Gravity,” “Popular” and “For Good,” _Wicked_ has been hailed by _The New York Times_ as “the defining musical of the decade.” _Time Magazine_ cheers, “if every musical had the brain, the heart, and the courage of _Wicked_, Broadway really would be a magical place.”
The Gershwin Theatre on 50th Street and Broadway is that magical place. From the first electrifying note to the final breathtaking moment, \_Wicked\_—the untold true story of the Witches of Oz—transfixes audiences with its wildly inventive story. It will send your spirits soaring to heights you’ll never forget.

Gershwin Theatre

The Gershwin Theatre, located in New York City, is a prominent Broadway venue known for its spacious design and modern amenities. Opened in 1972 as the Uris Theatre, it was the first new Broadway theatre built since 1928. Designed by architect Ralph Alswang, the theatre features an Art Nouveau style with enhanced seating, sightlines, and state-of-the-art acoustics. In 1983, during the 37th Tony Awards, it was renamed the Gershwin Theatre in honor of composer George Gershwin and his brother, lyricist Ira Gershwin. The theatre's rotunda houses the American Theatre Hall of Fame, celebrating the achievements of distinguished theatre professionals. With a seating capacity of approximately 1,933, it is one of the largest theatres on Broadway, hosting a variety of acclaimed productions and contributing to its enduring legacy in New York City's vibrant theatre scene.
