Magical new production of WICKED flies into Auckland in 2021

Something WICKED this way comes…

Flying into Sky City Theatre for a limited season in September 2021, North Shore Music Theatre are set to take Auckland audiences on a ‘swankified’ journey to the Emerald City and back again in WICKED the Musical – with a 40 strong cast of local talent.

The second highest grossing musical in Broadway history, WICKED tells the incredible untold story of an unlikely but profound friendship between two girls who first meet as sorcery students at Shiz University: the blonde and very popular Glinda (Teresa Wojtowicz) and a misunderstood green girl named Elphaba (Heather Wilcock).

Their extraordinary adventures in Oz will ultimately see them fulfil their destinies as Glinda – The Good, and Elphaba – the Wicked Witch of the West.

Likely to be one of the few large-scale productions to be staged in 2021 in Auckland, this will also be a return to SkyCity Theatre for North Shore Music Theatre, who previously staged Hairspray there in 2014.

A lavish production aiming to attract audiences of over 15,000 WICKED will feature:

  • A fully Auckland-region based cast of over 40 top New Zealand talent
  • Exquisite costuming
  • Sumptuous sets and staging

Tickets range from $39 – $79 and are available from www.iticket.co.nz from 28 October 2020.
