Soap Opera to do a “Wicked”-Themed Episode!

The daytime soap opera “Passions” has always been a supporter of musical theater, hosting an homage to “Chicago” in a 2003 episode of their show and now preparing for a musical episode borrowing from Broadway’s current hit “Wicked.”

The storyline will involve a recent cast member of the Broadway musical “Drowsy Chaperone,” Georgia Engel who will be portraying Esmeralda, an old school friend and the rival of Tabith Lenox, a character on the soap opera. “Passions” airs weekdays on NBC at 2 pm ET, and while an air-date has not yet been mentioned, it might be nice to get to know the characters before this great theme-episode airs.

If, however, you would like to supplement your themed-soap-opera experience with the real show, make sure you visit stubhub.com to get your tickets to see “Wicked”!
