Wicked, which had a hugely successful Broadway and touring run, will land in California Musical Theatre May 23-June 17, 2012.
In the 2011-12 Broadway Sacramento series, announced today, the popular musical prequel to “The Wizard of Oz” anchors the schedule of six shows. The four-week, 32-performance run of “Wicked” highlights the season’s new format, which has the other five productions running only one week. Each of those productions will be performed eight times.
Richard Lewis, executive producer of California Musical Theatre, predicted that this season will be particularly attractive to audiences. Season subscriptions and overall attendance have steadily declined for the Broadway Sacramento series over the past three years, forcing the shortened runs.
The final show of the season will be the long-awaited Sacramento debut of “Wicked.” Lewis said Broadway Series audiences have asked for the popular title for years.
“We announced ‘Wicked’ last September and the buzz has been really positive ever since,” Lewis said. “We feel we’re going to sell it out and sell it out very quickly.”
