Stephen Schartz’s genius and aptitude breach generation gaps, from beloved Disney films to flawless Broadway enchantment charm. The hit-making virtuoso who brought Godspell and Pippin to the world has now breathed life into smash-hit Wicked, which comes to Belk Theatre at Blumenthal Performing Arts Center for the fall playbill. 

Wicked smartly weaves governmental subjects, unconventional heroes, and unlikely romance within a number of catchy showtunes, including Defying Gravity, which continues to ignite and inspire audiences on Broadway and beyond.

Snopsis

The story follows Elphaba, the adulterine daughter of the wife of Munchkinland’s governor. Despite her family and identity issues, Elphaba makes it into the esteemed Shiz University, where she rooms with social butterfly Galinda. The two polar opposites don't take to each other at first but soon befriend. 

After a while, things take a turn for the worse when Elphaba notices nefarious acts against the Animals, a sentient race often targeted by persecution. Galinda and Elphaba go to the Wizard for help, but the Wizard disappointingly offers little assistance. A let-down Elphaba leaves the Emerald City to fight for the Animals, leaving everything else behind. 

Meanwhile, Galinda(Glinda) marries Fiyero, the Captain of the Guard, and pursues an influential lifestyle. Elphaba accidently wins Fiyero’s heart as he falls in love with her and her values. Will the couple’s love blossom unburdened, or will Elphaba’s political drive push Fiyero away, and kill her?

History & Awards

Wicked opened its first debut 20 years ago at San Francisco’s Curran Theatre. As its popularity spread, it broke into new locations year after year, receiving international acclaim with performances in London, Ireland, Mexico, Germany, and even Australia. Its capacity to draw audiences also motivated Hollywood producers to release a two-part motion picture based on the Broadway show, that hit cinemas in November 2024.

Wicked collected numerous awards during its prime in the 2000s, including 2 Drama Desk Awards for Outstanding Musical and Outstanding Lyrics, three Tony awards, and a Grammy award for Best Musical Theater Album. The cast and crew performing at Belk Theatre at Blumenthal Performing Arts Center on Tuesday 7th October 2025 promise to deliver a fantastic performance.
