WickedPG

Directed by Jon M. Chu | USA | 2024 | 2h 41m | Starring Cynthia Erivo, Ariana Grande, Jeff Goldblum, Michelle Yeoh, Jonathan Bailey

Elphaba, often misunderstood because of her green skin, forms an unexpected yet deep friendship with Glinda, a student driven by an unwavering quest for popularity. However, after a fateful encounter with the Wizard of Oz, their bond faces a turning point as their lives diverge in profoundly different directions. Starring Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande, this spectacular adaptation brings the award-winning Broadway musical to life on the big screen.

Reviews

‘Erivo’s knockout vocals seem to drive everything around her into a swooping, roaring apotheosis. Roll on next November.’
★★★★
Kevin Maher, The Times

‘Driven by knockout performances from Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande, Jon M Chu’s impossibly slick charm assault of an adaptation zips along so enjoyably that you almost wish it were longer’
★★★★
Wendy Ide, The Observer

Our beautiful art deco inspired auditorium can be found just off East Oxford's Cowley Road.We are open 7 days a week. We open the cinema and box office 30 minutes before the scheduled start time of each film, and the Box Office then closes 10 minutes after the film starts. We only show a few adverts – less than most cinemas – and we only play a couple of trailers, so please don’t be late as the film itself starts very close to the advertised time!
