Wicked Orpheum Theatre Show

The theater’s sound system was upgraded back in the 90s, making sure every note hits just right—perfect for a musical as dazzling as Wicked. Sitting among the 2,578 seats, you get a sense of how grand this place really is, even if the upper tiers sometimes feel a little disconnected from the action.
