Melbourne rolls out the emerald carpet with a champagne reception on opening night, Saturday, 10 May, 2014.
Wicked: The Musical is based on the 1995 Gregory Maguire novel,
Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West. The musical is told from the perspective of the witches of the Land of Oz; beginning before Dorothy's arrival from Kansas, and continuing after. The Wicked Witch of the West (Elphaba) and the Good Witch of the North (Glinda), grew a complicated friendship wrought with competition, jealousy, and politics.

"We are very excited for WICKED to return to Melbourne as part of our 10th Anniversary World Tour and trust that audiences will again embrace it as warmly as those in North America, the UK, Japan, Germany and Holland," said WICKED producers Marc Platt and David Stone. "It is a testament to the show's storytelling power that audiences from around the globe continue to embrace its universal themes."
