1_200x300-Wicked

The Tony award winning Wicked is coming to Nashville!  This clever musical, written by Stephen Schwartz and Winnie Holzman is based on Gregory Maguire's innovative retelling of the Wizard of Oz.  It tells the story of apprentice Wicked Witch of the West, Elphaba, and her life before dear Dorothy turns the Land of Oz upside down.  TPAC is holding a special ticketing event for the Nashville performances, running September 2nd through 20th.

DATE:  Saturday, June 6 2009
TIME:  8:00 AM - 10: 00 AM (Come early, it will fill up fast!)
PLACE:  TPAC's Jackson Hall Box Office
   (The line will begin at the bridge on War Memorial Plaza.)

EVENT DETAILS:

Between 8:00 a.m. and 10:00 a.m., tickets will be exclusively available at the Tennessee Performing Arts Center’s downtown box office. The line for the event will begin at the bridge on War Memorial Plaza.

Ticket buyers are encouraged to arrive early for access to some of the best seats in the house and special box office opening festivities. WJXA Mix 92.9 radio will be on site with live remote broadcasts, offering prizes for WICKED trivia and karaoke participants. WJXA also will give WICKED hats to the first 92 ticket buyers in line, Dunkin Donuts will provide green “munchkin” donuts and coffee to the first 150 people in line, and Which Wich will hand out vouchers for a free “The Wicked” sandwich to the first 100 people in line, as well as free samples at the event.

Beginning at 10 a.m., remaining tickets will be available online; by calling Ticketmaster at 615/255-ARTS (2787); and at all Ticketmaster outlets, including TPAC’s Box Office at Davis-Kidd Booksellers in The Mall at Green Hills. There is a maximum of 8 tickets per person. For information on offers for groups of 20 or more, call TPAC Group Sales at 615/782-4060.

The preexisting sales to season ticket holders and groups indicate an overwhelming interest in WICKED. It is possible that the Nashville engagement will sell out quickly. Patrons are urged to purchase their tickets to WICKED early.

The WICKED on-sale event will take place June 6, rain or shine. Promotions, giveaways and event details are subject to change without notice.
