Rochester Auditorium Theatre Wicked tickets available through Ticket King!



The hugely popular Broadway Musical Wicked is coming to Rochester, New York from April 13-May 2, 2010. Wicked tickets have been selling out right and left for every city Wicked has toured! Don't miss out on this chance to see what all the fuss is about! Be sure to get your Broadway Wicked tickets for the Rochester Auditorium Theatre early!

The story of Wicked mostly takes place before Dorothy stumbles upon Oz and Munchkinland. Wicked tells the background story of Elphaba, who becomes the Wicked Witch of the West, and Glinda, the Good Witch of the North.


Originally, Elphaba and Glinda are friends, but their differences in personality, viewpoints, and other life influences bring them to where they end up as we know them from the Wizard of Oz. Buy your Rochester Auditorim Theatre Wicked tickets NOW!



Wicked definitely gives you a different idea about why the Wicked Witch of the West is the way she is....if you've already seen Wicked, or after you see the show, please let me know what you think! I sure had to put my opinion of Elphaba on a pedestal and re-evaluate after reading the synopsis (because I have to admit, I've been wanting to see it, and when it's been in my area, I did not buy Wicked tickets early enough and missed out, so I finally had to read the storyline online!).




The musical version of Wicked premiered in May 2003, in San Francisco, and Wicked opened on Broadway at Gershwin Theatre in October 2003. Wicked was nominated for ten Tony Awards in 2004, winning three Tony Awards, for Best Leading Actress, Best Scenic Design and Best Costume design. Wicked did not win the Tony Award for Best Musical, losing to Avenue Q (check back soon for a blog about Avenue Q!!!). Wicked musical tickets will be flying off the shelves, so buy Wicked tickets now for the lovely...and unlovely witches in your life!

Twenty-five performances might seem like a lot, leading you to believe that you have all the time in the world to purchase your Wicked tickets for Rochester Auditorium Theatre "at a later date", but Wicked grossed more than $56 million in the first year Wicked was on Broadway! The production of Wicked has been playing to capacity for almost every performance! Now is not the time to dawdle! Get on it with purchasing your Wicked tickets before you're outta luck, and GREEN with envy for those that get to attend Wicked without you!

Beauty and the Beast Musical Ordway Center for Performing Arts tickets

I am so excited to be living in Minneapolis again after three years in Connecticut. I thought living less than three hours from The Big Apple would be awesome! I thought I would be able to go into New York City and see any Broadway show that I wanted! Little did I know how expensive it would be to go to a play or musical in New York City! The theatre ticket prices are higher, it's expensive to drive and park or take the Amtrak, let alone get a hotel for a night! Needless to say, I did not frequent Broadway while living on the East Coast. Being back in Minneapolis, I can now afford to go to a Broadway show. Not only are the Minneapolis and St. Paul ticket prices much more affordable, I don't have to take an Amtrak into the city and stay in a hotel!



I am extremely pumped that I got my Beauty and the Beast tickets for the Ordway Center for Performing Arts. (A Christmas gift so some very special people in my life...cannot say who, in case they are reading my Blog!) Beauty and the Beast is one of my all time favorite Disney movies, and has defiantly been towards the top of my list of 'must see' theatre shows. St. Paul Ordway Center Beauty and the Beast tickets are available for the following dates while Beauty and the Beast is running at the Ordway: December 15, 2009 through January 3, 2010. Ticket King has tickets for the January 2, 2010 matinee performance starting at $115 in the orchestra section row E. Beauty and the Beast tickets for the Ordway Center will be an excellent Holiday gift for those in your life, along with many others, so I would buy your Ordway Center Beauty and the Beast tickets before it's too late!




Beauty and the Beast musical tickets have been available since 1994, when the Disney film of the same name was adapted for Broadway, and Beauty and the Beast ran on Broadway through 2007, becoming the sixth-longest running production in history. The Beauty and the Beast musical was nominated for nine Tony Awards, including Best Musical and Beast Original Score. Out of those nine Tony Awards that Beauty and the Beast was nominated for, the only Tony Award that Beauty and the Beast won was for Best Costume Design.



Minneapolis and St. Paul are becoming more and more popular, it seems, as far as getting such high caliber broadway theatre shows such as Beauty and the Beast, Grease, The Lion King, etc into town, but who knows when the next time will be that Beauty and the Beast tickets are available in the Minneapolis and St. Paul area! Buy your tickets NOW online at www.TicketKingOnline.com or give Ticket King a call!

Spring Awakening Temple Buell Theatre tickets


The popular newer musical Spring Awakening will be playing at the Temple Buell Theatre in Denver from December 1 through December 13, 2009. Temple Buell Theatre Spring Awakening tickets are available now through Ticket King!

Spring Awakening tickets were first available for Broadway on December 10, 2006, after a Summer 2006 stint off-Broadway. Spring Awakening received eleven Tony nominations in 2007, and won 8 of those Tony Awards!

For those that do not know the plot of Spring Awakening, it is not for young children. The musical Spring Awakening's main theme is the discovery of sex in late 19th-century Germany.

I don't know who is a fan of the new TV show Glee, but the actress who plays Rachel on Glee is Lea Michele, who played Wendla, the main female character, in the original Broadway cast of Spring Awakening.
