Universal Pictures Australia is tickled pink (and green) to announce the esteemed cast of WICKED will be heading to Sydney this November to unveil to Australian audiences – the first in the world – the cinematic event of the year at the iconic State Theatre in Sydney.
On November 3, Sydney will be the first stop on the global Journey Through Oz premiere tour—a series of themed premieres across five international cities offering audiences an unparalleled experience of the film’s wondrous, breathtaking world.
Wicked stars Emmy, Grammy and Tony winning artist and Academy Award® nominee Cynthia Erivo (Elphaba) and Grammy-winning multi-platinum recording artist and global superstar Ariana Grande (Glinda) who will be joined by their co-stars Jeff Goldblum, Jonathan Bailey, Marissa Bode, Ethan Slater and the film’s visionary director Jon M. Chu at the Australian premiere—a whimsical tribute to Munchkinland, the first wonderous realm in the world of Wicked. The Australian Premiere of Wicked is presented in partnership with American Express.
Australian audiences can attend the first screenings of Wicked at limited previews on November 20, celebrating a “Wicked Wednesday” in cinemas nationwide. Tickets to these exclusive events go on sale today, Friday October 11, along with tickets to the film’s season. Citizens of Oz are all invited to gather their best friends, sisters, boyfriends, young and old to experience the magical spectacle on the big screen.
