Universal Pictures announced that sing-along screenings of Wicked will be held at over 1,000 theaters on Christmas Day, Dec. 25. Stars Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande will make a new video introduction, with the lyrics for all the film’s musical numbers shown on screen. Wicked will also continue its theatrical run in standard format.
Jim Orr, president of domestic theatrical distribution for Universal Pictures, said in a statement: “the overwhelming response to ‘Wicked’ has been remarkable. These sing-along screenings offer fans a unique opportunity to become part of the story they’ve embraced so enthusiastically. There’s something extraordinarily special about experiencing this beloved musical together as a community, and we’re thrilled to create that opportunity this holiday season.”
Wicked is based on the Broadway musical prequel to ‘The Wizard of Oz’. Wicked: Part Two is set to debut in theaters on November 21, 2025. The film is now the highest-grossing Broadway musical film adaptation in U.S. box office history, and has made over $320 million domestic and $457 worldwide. It surpasses ‘Grease’, which held the record for 46 years.
