Don’t Worry: “Wicked” Makes Return Engagements

The hit musical “Wicked,” created by Stephen Schwartz and Winnie Holzman and based on the book “Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West” by Greogry Maguire, is the sort of show that people crave once they have witnessed the spectacle for the first time. This is due as much to the incredibly moving score and clever lyrics as it has to do with the familiarity of the storyline, the breathtaking costumes and the grandeur of the sets.

However, many shows are created throughout any given season on Braodway, and even more shows have been created throughout the history of musical theater as an art form, from some of these other big budget musicals, “Wicked” is no different. Yet, there are not too many shows that, beyond touring as much as this show does, also have residential shows running in two different cities and have taken their tours internationally. No, “Wicked” is a musical in a class by itself, and it is quite possibly one of the only musicals that is requested to return, and able to abide that request.

For your won chance to see this musical, whether for the first time or a repeat performance, make sure you get your tickets at stubhub.com today!

“Wicked” Still at Top of Chart!

With all the hype surrounding hte movie version of “Hairspray” - which we should contextualize by explaining that it is indeed the second movie version of John Water’s hit film “Hairspray” that was adapted to a stage musical and went on to win such acclaim and so many fans that a re-make of Waters’ original movie has been undertaken with an all-star cast - people seem to be forgetting that the show is indeed still running on Broadway.

However, perhaps thanks to teh hype surounding the movie with its cast members including the likes of John Travolta and Michelle Pfieffer, the Broadway Cast Recording of “Hairspray” is still steadily climbing the Billboard Top Cast Albums Chart.

Of course, even the fun-filled boppy songs of “Hairspray” are playing second fiddle to the soaring score of Stephen Schwartz’s hit musical “Wicked” which is still sitting pretty at the top of the chart. Indeed Wicked’s soundtrack has topped the Top Cast Album Chart for 74 of the 81 weeks that the chart has been in existence, having been added by Billboard on January 12, 2006.

This competition proves that, without a dobut Wicked should have competitors as that is the nature of theater and of course we want it to continue to grow and shfit and change. However, the fact that “Wicked” still holds tlhe number one spot does indeed prove what a great show it is. For your chance to see it, make sure you get tickets at stubhub.com today!
