It’s been over 19 months since a Broadway show has performed on a Blumenthal Performing Arts stage. But, the spell is broken and Broadway is back in the Queen City … on a broomstick.

[Now through Sunday, Oct. 3, you can fly out of the house to experience the musical smash, WICKED, on the grand dame of Charlotte stages — Ovens Auditorium.](https://www.blumenthalarts.org/events/detail/wicked-1)

### **It’s Time to Get WICKED**

**WICKED**, the untold true story of the Witches of Oz, looks back at what happened long before Dorothy dropped in. **WICKED** tells the tale of another young woman, Elphaba, born with emerald-green skin — smart, fiery, misunderstood, and possessing an extraordinary talent.

 When Elphaba meets a bubbly (and extremely popular) blonde named Glinda, their initial rivalry turns into the unlikeliest of friendships … until the world decides to call one “good,” and the other one “wicked.”

### **See It LIVE on Stage**

There’s nothing quite like enjoying a musical performance in person — laughing, crying and singing together. (Dancing in your seats IS allowed … and encouraged.) And, no musical enchants an audience like **WICKED** can. *USA Today* called **WICKED** “a complete triumph! An original musical that will make you laugh, cry, and think.”
