Before the Wicked Witch of the West started chasing Dorothy for those ruby red slippers, she was busy trying to do good for the land of Oz.  Yes, you heard me correctly.  Elphaba, a.k.a. The Wicked Witch was merely a student at a school for wizardry when she was labeled “wicked”.  You may wonder how, but that is going to be something you will have to find out when you come to the Schuster Center to see Wicked, the Tony Award-winning musical about the infamous Witches of Oz.

The cast is bound to astound audiences, consisting of Marcie Dodd, direct from the Broadway company, as Elphaba, Helen Yorke, Marilyn Caskey, and Tom McGowan, who some of us may know as Ray‘s friend Bernie from “Everybody Loves Raymond”. Performances begin February 2, 2010 and will run until March 7, 2010. Tickets are now on sale and are going to sell fast, so make sure you jump on this opportunity to learn how the Witches of Oz became best friends, only to later become “wicked” and “good”.  Go to wickedticketsny.net for your cheapest tickets for Wicked in Dayton, Ohio.  Feel free to use the discount code “wicked” for an extra 5% off of your entire purchase.
