‘Wicked’ tickets go on sale
Tickets to the Dayton premiere of the musical “Wicked” go on sale to the general public Friday, Oct. 30, the sixth anniversary of the show’s Broadway opening.
The Victoria Theatre Association will present 24 performances of the smash hit by Stephen Schwartz and Winnie Holzman from Feb. 17 to March 7, 2010, at the Schuster Performing Arts Center, Second and Main streets.
Here’s what you need to know to buy tickets to a show that is expected to break local records.
Doors to the Schuster Center will open at 7 a.m., but only at the Ludlow and Second streets entrance, not on Second Street or Main Street. In-person sales will start at 8 at the Ticket Center Stage box office in the building’s Wintergarden lobby. Telephone and online sales of remaining seats will start at 10 a.m.
Prices range from $37 to $120. There is a limit of eight tickets per person. Sales to Victoria subscribers and groups are already under way.
Those waiting in line can take part in trivia and costume contests. Prizes will be awarded. Doughnuts and coffee will be served. Radio stations Lite 99.9 FM and Mix 107.7 will broadcast live from the site.
CEO and president Ken Neufeld said the Victoria expects to sell out the show, based on results and attendance records in cities across the country. Approximately 55,000 tickets will be available for the Miami Valley and Good Samaritan Hospitals Broadway Series presentation. Gross receipts are expected to total $4.2 million.
