BroadwayWorld just announced that Wicked’s production at London’s Apollo Victoria Theatre just enjoyed its highest grossing year to date – grossing £27,333,991 at the Box Office up 100,000 from last year (2008). The musical, which was named “Best Musical of the Decade” by Entertainment Weekly has grossed over £90 million at the UK Box Office since premiering in London in September 2006. The production celebrated 1,000 performance in February last year and 2 million customers in May 2009.

The women of Wicked in the UK – Dianne Pilkington and Alexia Khadime – were honored as Women of the Future at the annual Woman of the Future Awards. The production has been ’short-listed’ as Best West End Show by theatergoers voting online through the end of the month, at Whatsonstage.com (http://awards.whatsonstage.com). ”The public’s incredible enthusiasm and support for Wicked has swept us along on a huge wave of success since we opened in 2006. To see our business continuing to climb year-on-year is really incredible and we are enormously grateful to the millions of people who have bought tickets to date and especially to those who made 2009 our best year yet,” UK Executive Producer Michael McCabe said.
