“WICKED” returns to the Benedum Center from Jan. 14-Feb. 15, marking the sixth time the show has played at the theater since 2006.
“The show looks great inside this auditorium,” says Steve Quinn, company manager of “WICKED.”
It takes 30 hours to load the set of the show into a theater, Quinn says. Thirteen trucks carry hundreds of pieces of equipment and props.

“The arts are so important here in Pittsburgh,” Quinn says. “We’re just excited to be here for five weeks.”
