Get a First Look at NBC's "Wicked: One Wonderful Night" Musical Special

 NBC is giving fans a magical early treat with Wicked: One Wonderful Night, a primetime musical event airing on November 6 — just 15 days before the premiere of Wicked: For Good from Universal Pictures.

This two-hour television special features powerhouse performances from Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande, joined by an all-star cast including Michelle Yeoh, Jeff Goldblum, Ethan Slater, Bowen Yang, and Marissa Bode. Also making appearances are film director Jon M. Chu and legendary composer and lyricist Stephen Schwartz.

According to NBC, the special will include fresh musical arrangements, exclusive cast interviews, behind-the-scenes content, special surprises, and quite possibly a sneak peek at what's coming next in the world of Oz. (Let’s be real — that sneak peek seems like a sure thing.)

Already filmed at the iconic Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, the venue was transformed into a stunning, Emerald City-inspired set for the event. A live 37-piece orchestra, led by award-winning musical director Stephen Oremus, brings the score to life, while choreographer Christopher Scott (of Wicked and Wicked: For Good) handles the dance sequences. The upcoming film will also feature two brand-new songs by Stephen Schwartz.

You can catch Wicked: One Wonderful Night from 8–10 p.m. on NBC, and it will be available for streaming on Peacock the following day. Surprise celebrity guests are also expected to join the celebration, adding even more excitement to this spellbinding tribute to Oz.
