In celebration of the 15th anniversary of the hit Broadway musical Wicked, the show’s original leading ladies, Kristin Chenoweth and Idina Menzel, will reunite for an NBC concert special. The duo who played Glinda and Elphaba in the show’s original cast will headline a special tribute concert on October 29. The concert will feature songs from the Tony-nominated show and other guests including Ariana Grande, Pentatonix, and other stars expected to be announced later. In a press release, Doug Vaughan, executive vice president, special programs and late night at NBC Entertainment said, “Wicked is a blockbuster musical playing all over the world and still selling out night after night after 15 years on Broadway, and we’re thrilled to be partnering with Emmy and Tony-winning producer Marc Platt and the entire WICKED team to celebrate the enduring success of this show.”
