“What is this feeling, so sudden and new?” It’s euphoria! Because the world-famous musical Wicked is back, flying into Chicago for a two month stint at the Oriental Theatre. The three-time Tony award winning musical returns to the windy city on Oct. 30, the tenth anniversary of the show’s opening night on Broadway. After completing a three and a half year run in Chicago from 2005-2009, Wicked is back by “Popular” demand! This iconic musical reveals the untold story of the witches of Oz, and what happened before Dorothy dropped in on them. Elphaba and Glinda’s infamous friendship stood the test of time, public scrutiny, and love triangles. The show follows the two witches as they make their way through college and into the dark realities of what lies beyond it. Full of chart-topping tunes and outstanding choreography, Wicked will have you “Dancing Through Life” until the very last note. The New York Times confirmed it as “Broadway’s biggest blockbuster” and USA Today called it “the most complete – and completely satisfying – new musical in a long time.” Fun for the entire family, “Thank Goodness”! Wicked is an absolute cultural phenomenon that you just can’t pass up. Wicked will run at the Oriental Theatre (24 W. Randolph) through December 21. Tickets range from $37-$107.
