Produced by company members of Wicked, the evening is an opportunity for them to step out of their roles in the musical and kick up their heels performing some of their favorite non-Ozian material. WITCHES' NIGHT OFF is part of an ongoing series of performances by the touring company to support charitable causes. The Wicked, Munchkinland Tour has raised more than $2.8 million in donations for Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS and local AIDS service organizations all over the country.
The Monday night event will include LIVE auctions featuring opportunities to join the company backstage at the Buell Theatre.
Live Auction items include:
- Watching the "GREENIFYING" of Oz's most infamous lady. This experience includes a backstage tour plus two house seats for a performance of Wicked between Wednesday, June 18th and Saturday, July 4th.
