When you purchase discount Wicked tickets, you enter a world of Oz like none other – before Dorothy was blown in by the tornado, before she meets her friends in Oz and before the true meaning of the wizard is discovered. However, the Wicked storyline also moves well beyond Dorothy and Oz, with references to the events in the famous movie as well, much to the delight of cheap Wicked ticket holders.

Once Upon a Wicked Time

Wicked tells the story of the two witches in Oz, Elphaba, the future Wicked Witch of the West, and Galinda (later known as Glinda), the Good Witch of the North. The story is loosely based on the novel by Gregory Maguire, titled, "Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West." It highlights the relationship struggles between these two sisters that shaped them into the witches we know them as today. Those who purchase cheap Wicked tickets will see firsthand how poor Elphaba's fall from grace transformed her into the wicked witch we all know and love to hate today.

The plot is rich in sibling rivalry, highlighting the competition and differing personalities and viewpoints of the two sisters. Those who purchase discount Wicked tickets will enjoy watching the relationship evolve, particularly audience members who have siblings of their own. Love interests and the Wizard's corrupt government also give cheap Wicked ticket holders their money's worth in talent and storyline.
