Things to Know Before You Go

Is Wicked suitable for children?

Wicked is generally considered family-friendly and is often recommended for children aged seven and above. There are some loud moments and darker scenes, but the overall tone is uplifting.

How long does Wicked last?

The performance usually runs for about two hours and forty-five minutes, including one interval.

Do I need to know The Wizard of Oz to enjoy Wicked?

No. Wicked works perfectly well on its own, though those who know the story of The Wizard of Oz will enjoy spotting clever references and twists.

Where is Wicked performed in London?

Wicked is performed at the Apollo Victoria Theatre, just across the road from London Victoria station.

Is Wicked very loud or frightening?

The show includes some strong sound and lighting effects, as well as a few surprising entrances, but it is not designed to be frightening. Most families find the atmosphere magical rather than scary.

Is there a dress code at the Apollo Victoria Theatre?

There is no formal dress code. Smart-casual outfits are common, and you will see a mix of theatre-goers dressed up for a special occasion and others in relaxed clothing.

About this show

Discover the untold story of the Witches of Oz in Wicked, the spellbinding musical that imagines what happened long before Dorothy arrived. At the Apollo Victoria Theatre, two very different young women meet at university and form an unlikely friendship: one destined to be Glinda the Good, the other unfairly branded the Wicked Witch of the West. Big, heartfelt songs, spectacular flying sequences and emerald-green staging turn their journey into a dazzling night out. With themes of friendship, prejudice and choosing your own path, Wicked speaks as clearly to teenagers as it does to lifelong theatregoers. It is one of the West End's modern classics, a colourful, emotional story that leaves many audiences on their feet.
