Wicked

One of the world’s most performed and beloved musicals arrives in Finland in autumn 2026 — as a brand-new production created by Tampereen Työväen Teatteri. The premiere will be on 3 September 2026 on the Main Stage.

The global phenomenon of Wicked has captivated audiences on stage and on screen. Now, Tampere presents a production led by the same internationally acclaimed creative team behind TTT’s hit musical Beauty and the Beast.

Once upon a time, in a remarkable land where nothing is quite what it seems…

Green-skinned Elphaba is intelligent, brave, and different — and therefore often misunderstood. When she meets the widely admired Glinda, sparks fly. Prejudice gives way to an unexpected friendship that changes them both. But what happens when the world decides that one must be “good” and the other “wicked”?

Wicked is a story about the power of friendship, the courage to be yourself, and the ability to see the world through someone else’s eyes. A spectacular visual universe rises on the Main Stage, stunning in scale and imagination. With a live orchestra, soaring songs, and breathtaking stage imagery, audiences are swept into the magic of Oz — a grand adventure and an emotional journey that resonates with all of us.
Come experience a story that defies gravity — and reminds us that the real magic is already within us.
