Wicked at Orpheum Theatre Minneapolis

So much happened before Dorothy dropped in! That’s exactly what you’re going to get to see at Wicked. This story has become almost as popular as the original, and that’s saying something because who’s never heard of The Wizard of Oz? Drama, intrigue, and some of the best musical numbers that Broadway has ever produced are a part of this story. It’s really the stage setup, though, that brings everything together. Theater junkies will tell you that the top plays are the ones that are able to bring you into their world from the moment the show starts. Wicked makes sure the crowd understands that they are not in Kansas anymore, and they are, actually, in the land of OZ.

How the play navigates around the events of the original Wizard of OZ story is incredible. You’re getting a point of view that you would have never considered, especially from the original children’s book that everything is pretty much based on. The light and the darkness combine with the two witches, and of course, this battle between the two within a complex relationship is what fuels the Wicked narrative! It's surely, not the kid’s show that the Wizard of OZ intended to be. Audiences couldn’t be more happy that this adaptation is not afraid to embrace darker themes. At the end of the day this is a story about two witches. They gotta have their sketchy sides, even the one that’s closer to the "right path"! The musical that took over Broadway for seasons upon season is now on the road, and this is your chance to see it live in Minneapolis, Minnesota

The Orpheum Theatre is an incredible place to witness a show like this. You can bet that the production team will be able to re-create the World of OZ on this stage and make it visible to everyone in the crowd this night. Of course, not every spot in the theater is created equal. As is the case for most of these theatrical productions, you may be hoping to find a spot toward the middle of the venue, a few rows back from the stage. From here, you’ll have the ideal view from which to witness Wicked. Hit that get tickets button today to be a part of the show on Sunday 2nd August 2026. Tickets are starting at only $115!
