Two years ago the musical "Wicked" set attendance records at the Fox Theatre in St. Louis.
Now the "Wizard of Oz" prequel and winner of multiple Tony awards is back, playing through Jan. 6.
"Wicked" tells the story of two girls in Oz, one born with emerald green skin, who later become the iconic characters the Wicked Witch of the West and Glinda the Good Witch.
The national tour of "Wicked" opened in Toronto in 2005 and sold out a seven-week run, and the buzz continued in other cities where multiple-week engagements also sold out. The New York Times called it "Broadway's biggest blockbuster."
