from the president Dear friends of Omaha Performing Arts, As “popular” as ever — WICKED will celebrate 20 years on Broadway next year — a milestone achieved by few other productions. We are excited to welcome this blockbuster back to the Orpheum Theater!

Winner of over 100 major awards, including a Grammy® and three Tony® Awards, WICKED is a cultural phenomenon. NBC Nightly News proclaims it’s “the most successful Broadway show ever,” and Omaha audiences have always loved it.

What you may not know is that WICKED is truly “green.” The show has a strong commitment to sustainable practices and is an active member of the Broadway Green Alliance. In fact, WICKED’s producer David Stone was the recipient of the 2017 Green Broadway Award in recognition of his leadership in making Broadway more environmentally friendly. On Broadway and on tour, the WICKED cast and crew work diligently to be a zero-waste production and have implemented many sustainable practices that have been shared and adopted at theatres around the world.

I hope you have checked out our upcoming 2022/2023 Broadway Series! The season opens in October with AIN’T TOO PROUD, ANNIE, SIX THE MUSICAL, HARPER LEE’S TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD, Disney’s FROZEN and HAIRSPRAY. Plus, you have the option of adding LES MISÉRABLES to your subscription package. We hope you will join us for this exciting season by renewing or subscribing at TicketOmaha.com.

We look forward to spending the 2022/2023 Season with you! Enjoy the show!

GREGORY MAGUIRE (Author of Original Novel) published a dozen novels for children before writing his first adult novel, Wicked. A devotee of children’s fantasy, Maguire’s subsequent novels for adults are variations-on-a-theme: Confessions of an Ugly Stepsister considers Cinderella as a 17thcentury maid from Harlem; Lost evokes the ghost of Charles Dickens’s Scrooge; and Mirror Mirror features a High Renaissance Snow White daunted by the wickedest stepmother, Lucrezia Borgia.

Maguire’s novel Son of a Witch, a sequel to Wicked, is followed by A Lion Among Men and the final volume of the Wicked Years, Out of Oz. He lives in Massachusetts and Vermont with his husband, the painter Andy Newman, and their three children.
