So Much Happened Before Dorothy Dropped In…
Broadway’s Biggest Blockbuster, WICKED, is coming to Seattle!
Tickets go on sale on Friday May 15, 2009 at The Paramount Theatre Box Office at 7am. Online, phone and other outlets don’t go on sale until 9am.
The first 106 ticket buyers will receive a “green” WICKED reusable bag.
The 2006 engagement sold out in record time, and we expect this return to be equally successful.
Josh LaBelle, Executive Director of Seattle Theatre Group added,
The residual benefits for Seattle are extensive. A five-week sell-out engagement means significant business for downtown restaurants, parking lots and hotels. The entire community will see increased business during the run of WICKED.
WICKED, winner of 20 major awards, including a Grammy® Award and 3 Tony® Awards, is the untold story of the witches of Oz. Long before Dorothy drops in, two other girls meet in the land of Oz. One – born with emerald green skin – is smart, fiery and misunderstood. The other is beautiful, ambitious and very popular. WICKED tells the story of their remarkable odyssey, how these two unlikely friends grow to become the Wicked Witch of the West and Glinda the Good Witch.
WICKED will play at the Paramount Theatre from September 2 through October 4, 2009. Ticket prices for WICKED range from $27 – $150. Tickets for this performance go on sale on Friday, May 15. But, from 7am – 9am on May 15, tickets will only be available in person at The Paramount Theatre Box Office. Beginning at 9am, tickets may be purchased online.
