Wicked is coming to Southern California!

I was so excited to read that Wicked is coming to town. It has become one of my favorite musicals! I’ve had the opportunity to catch the show a few times when it played at the Pantages and completely fell in love with the show. My daughter was still a bit too young at the time but now she is the perfect age to watch. I can’t wait to take her!

Wicked will play at the Orange County Performing Arts Center from March 9th to April 3rd and you do not want to miss it. If you love The Wizard of Oz, you will absolutely love Wicked. Tickets will start at $38.75. To learn more about the show and to purchase tickets head over here.
