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!

The national tour of the blockbuster musical, Wicked is currently performing at Bushnell Center for the Performing Arts, 166 Capitol Ave. Hartford. This is a return engagement at the Bushnell of the hit show, now in its eighth year on Broadway, and still the top-grossing show there.

The back story of the Wicked Witch of the West (Elphaba) from “The Wizard of Oz,” based on Gregory Maguire’s fanciful book and her relationship with Glinda, the Good Witch.

All the bells, whistles and flying monkeys are here. Solid performing throughout — especially Dee Roscioli as Elphaba and Amanda Jane Cooper as Glinda. Roscioli has the right dry take to deliver Winnie Holzman’s sardonic lines for the outcast character. She also has the pipes to deliver the emotionally rich big notes that composer Stephen Schwartz sprinkles throughout the show. Cooper is a hoot as the self-centered Glinda but also goes deeper as we see the character grow from good-time girl to someone with a moral center. Nice jobs, too, by Randy Danson as Madame Morrible, Mark Jacoby as the Wizard (has the role ever been as well sung?) and Colin Hanlon as Fiyero.

If you’re a fan of The Wizard of Oz, then Wicked is the must see equivalent in musical form. Though the story is different, many of the same characters are dealt with, and this musical is fun, romantic, and creative.

While The Wizard of Oz focuses on Dorothy Gale and her trip to the magical land of Oz, Wicked is a bit different. This musical focuses on Elphaba (known in The Wizard of Oz as the Wicked Witch of the West) and Galinda, later known as Glinda (the Good Witch). The musical explores Elphaba and Glinda in their younger days when they attended school together, and the way that it progresses helps to demonstrate how Elphaba became perceived as evil and how this is an entirely incorrect interpretation.
