WICKED The Musical in Bahrain: About the Production
The story takes you into the Land of Oz and introduces two witches with very different personalities. Elphaba is clever and often misunderstood, while Glinda is confident, cheerful, and admired everywhere she goes. Their friendship and rivalry shape the rest of the story, and watching their paths unfold is one of the reasons WICKED is loved by so many.
The Bahrain staging will feature new visual elements, couture-level costumes, and standouts moment created especially for this run: something fans will appreciate when they see it live.
Visitors can expect strong storytelling, memorable performances, and well-known songs like ‘Defying Gravity,’ ‘Popular,’ and ‘For Good.’
If you plan to attend, it’s recommended to arrive early. Latecomers will only be admitted during breaks.
