The multi (CAT) award winning Albatross Musical Theatre Company's production, Wicked, tells the incredible untold story of an unlikely but profound friendship between two girls who first meet as sorcery students at Shiz University: the blonde and very popular, Glinda and a misunderstood green girl named Elphaba. Following an encounter with The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, their friendship reaches a crossroads and their lives take very different paths. Their extraordinary adventures in Oz will ultimately see them fulfil their destinies as Glinda The Good and the Wicked Witch of the West. With a full orchestra in the pit and over fifty in the cast, this show promises to make Witches fly, levitate and of course you can't go past the magic of theatre. Wicked is a family musical event at the Shoalhaven Entertainment Centre - the perfect entertainment this July school holidays.
