Wicked comes to the Academy of Music in Philadelphia, PA at the beginning of 2010.  Experiencing one of Broadway’s most incredible musicals in a newly renovated and restored theater, including a restored crystal chandelier, is a great way to ring in the New Year.  Marcie Dodd, coming straight from the Broadway production, portrays Elphaba, the character better known as the Wicked Witch of the West.  The beautiful and popular Glinda is brought to life by Helen Yorke, who has graced the Broadway stage in Grease.  Marilyn Caskey, whose Broadway credits include Gypsy and Phantom of the Opera, takes on the powerful role of Madame Morrible.  And the “man behind the curtain” is portrayed by Tom McGowan, who has also been on Broadway, but is well-known as Bernie, Raymond’s friend on the popular TV show Everybody Loves Raymond.
