Long before that girl from Kansas arrives in Munchkinland, two other girls meet in the land of Oz. One — born with emerald-green skin — is smart, fiery and misunderstood. The other is beautiful, ambitious and very popular. How these unlikely friends become the Wicked Witch of the West and Glinda the Good makes for the most spellbinding new musical in years. Winner of 35 major awards, including a Grammy® and three Tony Awards®, Wicked is “Broadway’s biggest blockbuster” (The New York Times), and “a cultural phenomenon” (Variety).

“I’m very happy that The Smith Center has secured a return of Wicked for Las Vegas” said The Smith Center president and CEO, Myron Martin. “We are proud to present the most memorable theatrical experiences for our guests and Wicked is one of those productions. It has been a favorite on Broadway for more than ten years and, in my opinion, the national tour is even better than the Broadway production, which I also loved. We can’t wait to welcome back Elphaba and Glinda.”

Wicked tour will continue playing at The Smith Center through Sunday Nov 9, 2014 and Tickets are now on sale online. Buy Wicked Las Vegas NV Tickets today, Get $10 OFF on Ticket Orders of $350 or more by using code TICK13 at Checkout!

Wicked Musical is currently playing at Reynolds Hall in the Smith Center for the Performing Arts through October 07, 2012.

Here is the review by Don Chareunsy at Las Vegas Weekly.

The song could be about “Wicked” itself, as the Broadway smash based on the 1995 novel “Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West” by Gregory Maguire has become a theatrical phenomenon, winning three Tonys in 2004 and thrusting its two dynamic lead actresses Kristin Chenoweth as Glinda (or Guh-linda, with a Guh), and Idina Menzel as Elphie (Menzel, facing off against Chenoweth, went home with the statuette) into the spotlight.

No matter that “Wicked,” a prequel and parallel of Frank L. Baum’s “The Wonderful Wizard of Oz” and the 1939 Hollywood classic “The Wizard of Oz” starring Judy Garland, has divided critics from day one (it was nominated for 11 Tonys and notably lost Best Musical, Best Book and Original Score to “Avenue Q”); it is critic proof — in the vein of the “Twilight” books and films — and has a devoted (fanatic) following like its predecessor “Rent.”

The scenic and costume design (the other two Tony winners) at Reynolds Hall on Thursday night were exemplary, and the supporting cast — Kim Zimmer (Madame Morrible — and, yes, Reva Shayne from “Guiding Light,” which garnered her four Emmys), Cliffton Hall (Fiyero), Tom McGowan (the Wonderful Wizard of Oz) and Demaree Hill (Nessarose) — under director Joe Mantello were very good.

But it’s no surprise that Parker and Murin are the exceptional standouts, and they hold their own against role originators Menzel and Chenoweth, respectively — big red ruby slippers to fill, indeed.

Murin is a comedic, ditzy blonde delight as Glinda, and she does the book by Winnie Holzman (“My So-Called Life”) proud with every hilarious vocal and physical delivery. Her rendition of “Popular” was a highlight of the evening; it’s good to be Glinda the Good Witch, who travels by bubble.

The audience heaped praise before, during and, in the valet line, post-show. The full standing ovation was immediate — and not just for Parker and Murin — and rousing.

“Wicked” is popular, and it will be po-pu-lar for many years to come. It’s Oz-some.

The first full-length Broadway Las Vegas season at the Smith Center for the Performing Arts will kick off with the hit Stephen Schwartz-Winnie Holzman musical Wicked beginning August 29.

Wicked will be in Las Vegas for a limited engagement of 6-weeks, which concludes October 7, 2012. The 2012-13 lineup represents the Smith Center’s mission to “offer world-class entertainment to Southern Nevada residents.”

Long before that girl from Kansas arrives in Munchkinland, two other girls meet in the land of Oz. One — born with emerald-green skin — is smart, fiery and misunderstood. The other is beautiful, ambitious and very popular. How these unlikely friends become the Wicked Witch of the West and Glinda the Good makes for the most spellbinding new musical in years. Winner of 35 major awards, including a Grammy® and three Tony Awards®, Wicked is “Broadway’s biggest blockbuster” (The New York Times), and “a cultural phenomenon” (Variety).

The Smith Center is located at 361 Symphony Park Avenue in Las Vegas, NV. Wicked Smith Center Tickets Go On Sale MAY 19, 2012.

Smith Center books musical ‘Wicked’ as its inaugural Broadway touring show. Broadway’s No. 1 show for the past six years, with touring productions and “sit-down” engagements in cities worldwide, “Wicked” will fly into Reynolds Hall, the Smith Center for the Performing Arts center’s main performance venue, Aug. 28-Oct. 7, 2012, about five months after its March 2012 opening, scheduling eight performances each week.

Reasonable prices for tickets — which will go on sale about six months before the show arrives — were part of the agreement to bring “Wicked” to the Smith Center. “We have an understanding that our prices have to be comparable to our peer cities,” Myron Martin, president of the Smith Center says, estimating the range at $39-$99. “Oftentimes when you see a show on the Strip, it’s priced more expensively than you might have seen it in L.A. or San Francisco. Our deal is that prices will mirror cities like Denver and Salt Lake City.”

Wait few more months for Wicked Las Vegas Nevada Tickets.
