Acclaimed as “one of the most popular West End musicals ever” (London Evening Standard), the record-breaking London production continues its open-ended run at the Apollo Victoria Theatre where it is already the 15th longest-running musical in West End theatre history. WICKED tells the incredible untold story of the Witches of Oz and their unlikely but profound friendship.
