Wicked Returns to Chicago for November and December 2013

Nov. 21, 2013 - PRLog -- Wicked returns to Chicago this fall (http://www.conciergepreferred.com/chicago-theater/5386-wicked-returns-to-chicago.html) thanks to popular demand. In celebration of Wicked’s 10th anniversary on Broadway, this sensational Broadway production – the winner of some 50 major theatre awards including three Tony Awards – will be selling out at Chicago’s Oriental Theatre – Ford Theatre for the Performing Arts (http://www.conciergepreferred.com/chicago-theater/3110-dir-ford-center-for-the-performing-arts.html) through December 21st.

Wicked, the untold story of the witches of Oz has been called “Broadway’s biggest blockbuster” by the New York Times. Well before Dorothy gets blown out of Kansas, and into the colorful Land of Oz, two young ambitious girls meet in the magical land of wizards and munchkins. Wicked explores how these two girls – the misunderstood one born of emerald green skin, and the popular beauty – grow up to become the Wicked Witch of the West and Glinda the Good.
