Tickets Now on Sale!

Back by popular demand the show Entertainment Weekly calls “the best musical of the decade!”

After breaking box office records and selling out in record time during its 2005 and 2006 engagements in Toronto, WICKED, the smash-hit musical, will return to the Canon Theatre, October 20 through November 28. Tickets are now on sale!

Long before that girl from Kansas arrives in Munchkinland, two 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. How these two grow to become the Wicked Witch of the West and Glinda the Good makes for ”the most complete and completely satisfying new musical in a long time” (USA Today).

Wicked, the musical about the warring witches of Oz, is returning to Toronto for the third time in five years.

The musical is scheduled to play at the Canon Theatre beginning Oct. 20, Mirvish Productions announced Tuesday.

Wicked, a tale set in Oz before the arrival of Dorothy, won a Grammy Award and three Tony Awards on Broadway.

It played in Toronto in 2005, returned in 2006 and continues to play on Broadway.

There are currently eight productions of Wicked worldwide, including two North American tours, productions in San Francisco, London and Australia and productions in Japanese and German.

Stephen Schwartz created the music and lyrics and Winnie Holzman wrote the book, with direction by Joe Mantello. Cast is to be confirmed later, Mirvish said.

Wicked will play Oct. 20 to Nov. 28 in Toronto.

Mirvish, which owns four downtown theatres, has been booking touring productions to fill them, including Cats, which is coming for a week in May. The company announced its subscription season, including the musical Billy Elliot, last month.
