Wicked Defies the Downturn
| Smash hit musical Wicked enjoyed another successful year in 2009, despite the downturn in the economy. The show enjoyed its highest grossing year to date, taking £27.3 million at the box office (up nearly £100,000 on 2008). The production was recently named ‘Musical of the Decade’ by Entertainment Weekly magazine and continues to be nominated for awards, including ‘Best West End Show’ by theatregoers voting online. |

The Magic of OzBased on the novel by Gregory Maguire, Wicked takes to take the audience’s existing knowledge of ‘The Wizard of Oz’ then twists it with endless surprises. The Wicked Witch of the West has another side to her story and Wicked shows the world of Oz in a whole new light. Winner of over 30 international awards, productions worldwide have grossed over £1 billion. |
