Wicked

In the organizer's words:

It's summer, and the outdoor pool at Brauweg is hosting our annual open-air cinema: watch movies under the stars, and swim, bathe and picnic beforehand - outdoor pool AND cinema, every Thursday, Friday, Saturday, from July 3 to August 30. As always, you are welcome to bring your own blankets and picnic utensils, but drinks, snacks and popcorn will also be provided in the outdoor pool. You can sit on the large lawn, and there are chairs for those who find the ground too uncomfortable.

Admission is from 8pm (Saturday from 7.30pm), and if you buy your tickets in advance (online here via our website or at our box offices), you'll help us keep the queues short. The screenings start at dusk, the approximate starting times can be found in the program booklet and when booking tickets online here on this page.

The two witches Elphaba and Glinda couldn't be more different. While Glinda is privileged, pretty and attractive, Elphaba has to prove herself time and again due to her green skin color. As students at Glizz University in the fantastic land of Oz, they share an unusual but deep friendship. But after an encounter with the wonderful Wizard of Oz, their lives take very different paths: Glinda's desire for popularity seduces her into power, while Elphaba is determined to remain true to herself and the people around her. In their incredible adventures in Oz, both must ultimately fulfill their destinies: Glinda as the good girl and Elphaba as the wicked witch of the west.
