Wicked Tickets:24 recommendations

Certainly, Wicked has roots in Frank L. Baum’s The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, but many of the concepts from the classic 1939 film are copyrighted by MGM. Look out for clever allusions to Dorothy and her little canine buddy.

Don’t bother queuing for the loo when you get there; the Apollo Victoria is huge and there are a number of facilities throughout the theatre. The ones at the sides of the auditorium are usually free just before the start of the show.

The Apollo Victoria’s stage door is located between Wilton Road and Vauxhall bridge Road. Signed programmes, posters and flyers go for a fortune on Ebay.
