As Wicked in the West End celebrates its 15th birthday, watch these incredible performances
The London production of Wicked turns 15 this this week- celebrate with these amazing performances from over the years.
One of the world’s biggest musicals, Wicked has been running at the Apollo Victoria Theatre since 2006, opening on September 27.
Over the years countless stars have greened up to defy gravity or dropped in via bubble to share the ‘true untold story’ behind the Wizard Of Oz and just what happened before Dorothy dropped in.
As the show enjoys another year of performances (lockdown aside!), celebrate with these amazing performances from the West End casts over the years…
