generation. Behind the Emerald Curtain has been running in New York for over 8
years, and now we have created a portable version which comes to you. You'll see
costumes and props up close and hear first hand accounts of the birth of a new
musical. It takes 125 people to put Wicked on each night, and we'll learn what
every job is and why everyone is crucial. You'll see why theatre is the most
collaborative artform. It's fun, fast paced, and fascinating! Sean McCourt will
even sing “Wonderful” for workshop participants. Check out the website for more
