Greenville theater fans can start planning their trip to Oz: individual tickets for the Broadway smash “Wicked” go on sale November 18 at 10 a.m. for a 19-day engagement at the Peace Center next spring. The production is set to run April 21 through May 9, 2027, with 24 shows total.
A Return Trip Down the Yellow Brick Road
“Wicked” will mark its return to the Peace Center in Greenville after a previous engagement there, according to Greenville Journal. The musical tells the story of what happened in Oz before Dorothy ever arrived from over the rainbow, offering a prequel-style spin on the world made famous by “The Wizard of Oz.” The show was previously announced as the headline production of the Peace Center’s 2026-2027 Broadway season, according to WSPA.
The 2027 run will feature 24 shows between April 21 and May 9, 2027, per the Greenville Journal’s report. The Peace Center’s own event listing confirms the same April 21 to May 9, 2027 window for performances.
What to Expect From the Score and Sales
Audiences can expect to hear the show’s best-known numbers, including “Defying Gravity,” “Popular” and “For Good,” according to the Peace Center’s event page. The venue recommends the production for ages 8 and up. Individual ticket prices will vary by show and availability, the Greenville Journal reports, and anyone with questions can call the Peace Center box office at 864-467-3000.
A History of Sellouts in Greenville
“Wicked” has a track record of packing houses during its past visits to the Peace Center, with the production selling out several weeks of performances. A prior national tour of the show ran for three weeks at the venue, beginning Aug. 2, 2023. Given that history, Greenville audiences eager to catch the 2027 run may want to mark their calendars for the November 18 on-sale date.
