\n\tAfter going from the stage to the big screen, Wicked<\/a> <\/em>will return in a blend of the two formats with Wicked in Concert<\/em>, a live concert experience that will pair Wicked: Part One <\/em>and Wicked: For Good<\/em> with a live orchestra. <\/p>\n

\n\tThe live-to-film concert will present an orchestral performance of the score from John Powell and Stephen Schwartz, who also helmed music and lyrics. Select screenings will also include a choir to perform backing vocals.<\/p>\n

\n\tAn initial run of shows will begin in January with stops currently scheduled in San Francisco, New York, Chicago, Mexico City, Guadalajara, Monterrey, Toronto, Montr\u00e9al, and Vancouver through July. For now, the scheduled events account for screenings of Wicked: Part One<\/em> only, with additional dates and cities to be announced. Separate showings will be hosted for Wicked: For Good<\/em>. <\/p>\n

\n\tNo cast members from the Wicked <\/em>films will be in attendance for these screenings. Cynthia Erivo, the film\u2019s Elphaba, will perform alongside the Oklahoma City Philharmonic at the McKnight Center for the Performing Arts later this month in addition to an upcoming show at the Hollywood Bowl, but otherwise does not have any concert appearances scheduled for the next few months. Ariana Grande, on the other hand, recently concluded the Eternal Sunshine <\/em>tour, which she capped off with Petal (The Complete Live Album)<\/em>, which features live performances from her recently-released album, Petal<\/em>. <\/p>\n

\n\tDuring the London stop on Grande\u2019s tour, Erivo made a surprise appearance<\/a> to perform \u201cFor Good\u201d and a medley of \u201cGet Happy\u201d and \u201cHappy Days Are Here Again\u201d at the O2. \u201cAri, my sweet sister, my favorite person to sing with. Thank you for inviting me to share your stage, singing 2 songs that represent such a massive part of our lives,\u201d Erivo wrote on Instagram. \u201cThis is what we do it for, for the love of the work and for all of the fans. I missed this. We missed this. And I wish I had more words, but to put it simply, I will never forget this night. Like a handprint on my heart.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
