The untold Oz tale of Elphaba and Glinda soars in the Wicked musical in London, winning 100+ awards, 19 years strong, and still defying gravity at the Apollo Victoria Theatre.

Based on Gregory Maguire’s bestselling novel, Wicked reimagines Oz before Dorothy, perfect for families, friends, and anyone who loves a spellbinding musical.

A multi-award winner with 3 Tonys, 2 Oliviers, and a Grammy, Wicked has thrilled over 13 million audiences across 7,000 shows.

Friendship, identity, and prejudice power this story, staged with dazzling sets, lush costumes, and iconic songs like "Defying Gravity" and "Popular".

Playing at the Apollo Victoria Theatre since 2006, this West End staple continues to receive glowing praise. Book your tickets to the Wicked musical in London now!

Fun fact: In April 2010, "Defying Gravity" was used as a wake-up call for astronauts aboard NASA’s space shuttle mission STS-131. Astronauts’ families often pick wake-up songs, and this one was chosen to inspire the crew on day 10 of the mission.

The story

Before ruby slippers and yellow brick roads, two witches crossed paths in Oz, the blonde, beloved Glinda and the green-skinned outcast Elphaba. What begins as rivalry at Shiz University slowly becomes a powerful friendship, tested by politics, magic, and questions of morality. As loyalties shift and truths unravel, destiny pulls them toward roles history will never forget. But who truly decides who’s good and who’s wicked?

Critics reviews

“Wicked won me over completely.”

– IndieLondon

“This is a show that taps into a genuine public appetite for spectacle, art and heart, and this demanding, commanding musical provides it in spades.”

The musical was absolutely amazing! The transitions between scenes were incredibly smooth and beautifully done. The singing and acting were outstanding, and there were plenty of funny moments that had the audience laughing. It's a great show for all ages. One thing to keep in mind is that the view from the last rows of the Upper Circle is quite distant, so it's difficult to see the actors' facial expressions. However, the theatre offers binoculars to rent for just £1, which definitely helps.

Le spectacle était extraordinaire, nous sommes allés en famille avec deux enfants (8 et 11 ans). Nous avions le premier rang du balcon et c'était parfait. Juste à la bonne place pour avoir une super vue de la scène et des chanteurs. L'orchestre était également Visible depuis cette place. Je recommande vivement le travail fait est extraordinaire et nous étions aux anges.

Ich hatte bis jetzt nur deutsche Musicals gesehen und muss ehrlich sagen, dass dieses Musical auf einem ganz anderen Level war. Ich bin total begeistert von den Darstellern. Deren Fähigkeit zu singen und zu schauspielern war wirklich anders beeindruckend. Auch wie das ganze Musical aufgebaut und umgesetzt wurde ist einfach grandios. Definitiv mein Highlight des diesjährigen London Besuchs.

Unglaubliches Musical und wirklich sehenswert! Ein absolutes muss wenn man in London ist. Die Sitze waren sehr gut mit einem guten Blick auf die gesamte Bühne (1. Reihe auf der Empore), die Sicht ist aber auch abhängig von der Körpergröße, wegen dem Geländer. Ich bin 1,70cm groß und hatte keine Probleme.

Saw the performance in Nashville as part of the Broadway series. The performance at the Apollo was far superior The sets were amazing in ways that cannot be replicated in a traveling show. The actors were so very talented and their voices memorizing. One of the best parts of our London trip.
