Wicked at Orpheum Theatre Minneapolis

Step Into the Land of Oz With Wicked Playing at Orpheum Theatre

So much happened in the land of Oz before Dorothy arrived, and luckily, we have Wicked to share the tale. One of the most triumphant plays in the history of the Broadway circuit is going to be playing inside Orpheum Theatre on Saturday 25th July 2026. The light and the darkness blend on the stage while some of the most memorable songs that you know and love from this classic ring out in the halls of Orpheum Theatre. Before you know it, you're going to be immersed in "Defying Gravity" and "The Wizard and I." This is a performance that was expertly created to be a stage show, and boy, does it stand out!

The Costumes, the Lighting, All Work Together to Make Wicked Majestic

Perhaps one of the reasons why Wicked has been so successful both on Broadway and through these tours is that the story doesn't need a super elaborate stage design or gimmicks. Top-notch lighting and the incredible costume designs, paired with some of the elite performers to hit NYC, have been enough to lead this production to numerous Tony Awards and sold-out shows. Yet, since the story and the look and feel are iconic at this point, the audience isn't as tied to a specific element in production to experience Wicked. This makes it a wonderful choice to see on the road! A perfect example of the opposite is the Tiger animatronic from Life of Pi. That's an impressive feat of design, and it looks amazing when it works, but it's a little harder to take that show on the road. With Wicked, oddly enough, you don't need a lot to understand you've set foot in the land of Oz.

Listen to Broadway Experts When Picking Your Seats at Orpheum Theatre

It can be a little tempting to pick a spot on the front row to experience Wicked live, yet people in the know say it's one of the worst places to see a show. There's a reason why the rich and famous used to sit in the boxes on the upper levels. Try to find a spot toward the heart of the theater, quite a few rows away from the stage. Those seats will offer the finest sightline of the land of Oz and the story unfolding between the witches.
