Wicked is Defying the Recession

Wicked, the Musical is currently defying the recession with startling figures and this is no less true in Chicago, where it is entering its last few weeks before the show is closed. The musical made an impressive $1,764,428 in the box office during the last eight performances. Not only has the musical beat its own record from last year, but it has made more money in that single week than any other Chicago musical has made before.

What makes this an even more impressive take is that the musical is actually closing in 19 days. Most Chicago shows would be excited to meet the previous year’s sales, but this show has out-bid its last year’s take by impressive numbers. With this musical closing so soon, and tickets at such a high demand, you might want to look for your Wicked tickets here at StubHub.com, as they are quickly selling out.
