Sing-a-long with all this beautiful soundtrack  as you discover the untold story of the Wicked Witch of the West as Elphaba and Glinda navigate friendship, magic, and destiny in a dazzling adventure that proves there are two sides to every story.

You’re the one the Wizard has been waiting for! It’s time to try Defying Gravity – singing it, that is – so gather your fellow witches of Oz for a special sing-along screening of Wicked, with lyrics on screen to ensure not a single magical moment is missed. Wicked, the untold story of the witches of Oz, stars Emmy, Grammy and Tony winning powerhouse Cynthia Erivo (Harriet, Broadway’s The Color Purple) as Elphaba, a young woman, misunderstood because of her unusual green skin, who has yet to discover her true power, and Grammy-winning, multi-platinum recording artist and global superstar Ariana Grande as Glinda, a popular young woman, gilded by privilege and ambition, who has yet to discover her true heart. The two meet as students at Shiz University in the fantastical Land of Oz and forge an unlikely but profound friendship. Following an encounter with The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, their friendship reaches a crossroads and their lives take very different paths. Glinda's unflinching desire for popularity sees her seduced by power, while Elphaba's determination to remain true to herself, and to those around her, will have unexpected and shocking consequences on her future. Their extraordinary adventures in Oz will ultimately see them fulfill their destinies as Glinda the Good and the Wicked Witch of the West.
