Directed once again by award-winning director Jon M. Chu and starring the spectacular returning cast, led by Academy Award® nominated superstars Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande, the final chapter of the untold story of the witches of Oz begins with Elphaba and Glinda estranged and living with the consequences of their choices. Elphaba (Cynthia Erivo), now demonized as The Wicked Witch of the West, lives in exile, hidden within the Ozian forest while continuing her fight for the freedom of Oz’s silenced Animals and desperately trying to expose the truth she knows about The Wizard (Jeff Goldblum). Glinda, meanwhile, has become the glamorous symbol of Goodness for all of Oz, living at the palace in Emerald City and reveling in the perks of fame and popularity. Under the instruction of Madame Morrible (Oscar® winner Michelle Yeoh), Glinda is deployed to serve as an effervescent comfort to Oz, reassuring the masses that all is well under the rule of The Wizard. As Glinda’s stardom expands and she prepares to marry Prince Fiyero (Olivier award winner and Emmy and SAG nominee Jonathan Bailey) in a spectacular Ozian wedding, she is haunted by her separation from Elphaba. She attempts to broker a conciliation between Elphaba and The Wizard, but those efforts will fail, driving Elphaba and Glinda only further apart. The aftershocks will transform Boq (Tony nominee Ethan Slater) and Fiyero forever, and threaten the safety of Elphaba’s sister, Nessarose (Marissa Bode), when a girl from Kansas comes crashing into all their lives. As an angry mob rises against the Wicked Witch, Glinda and Elphaba will need to come together one final time. With their singular friendship now the fulcrum of their futures, they will need to truly see each other, with honesty and empathy, if they are to change themselves, and all of Oz, for good. Wicked: For Good also stars Emmy nominee Bowen Yang and Bronwyn James as Glinda’s fawning assistants, Pfannee and ShenShen and BAFTA and Grammy nominee Sharon D. Clarke (Caroline, or Change) as the voice of Elphaba’s childhood nanny, Dulcibear.

Ballet in two acts (1892) As the ultimate romantic ballet Giselle wows audiences in Paris with another sold-out run, here's a chance to revisit a classic performance. It begins like a fairy tale: Giselle, a sweet peasant girl falls in love with Albrecht, a young man who seems like a simple villager but is actually a duke. But he’s already promised to someone else, and when Giselle finds out, she loses her mind and dies. She is taken by the Wilis - ghosts of girls who were left by unfaithful loves. Will Giselle seek revenge by luring Albrecht to his death, or will love and forgiveness prevail? First performed in 1841 at the Royal Academy of Music, Jules Perrot and Jean Coralli’s ballet – here adapted by Patrice Bart and Eugène Polyakov – ushered in a new aesthetic in the history of Western dance. Pointe shoes, arabesques and long white tutus conjure up a fantastical, diaphanous universe that perfectly captures the spirit of Romanticism.
