Like comets pulled from orbit, droves of moviegoers across the world are flocking to see “Wicked: For Good,” which hits theaters in the US on Friday, Nov. 21. Here’s how you can celebrate the popular movie musical around Indy.
Shop at Francis & Fern
Perhaps nowhere else in Indy screams “Glinda” like this pink, sparkly boutique. The store has a handful of themed items in stock, including holiday ornaments and stationery items.
Take a tandem skydive
Everyone deserves the chance to fly. You can defy gravity alongside your ride-or-die at Skydive Indianapolis, located at Frankfort Municipal Airport — just leave the broom at home.
We think Cynthia Erivo would approve of these beautiful (if slightly shorter) statement-making nails.

Get your nails done
Elphaba (and the “Wicked” press tour) just wouldn’t be the same without Cynthia Erivo’s signature showstopping nails. Get your own set done at local parlors specializing in intricate nail art like Nails by Neat, 24K Nail Spa, and City Nail Bar.
Enroll in dance lessons
Dancing through life is much easier when you know the right steps. Sign up for a class or two from a local studio — bonus points if you go for a musical theater class.
Get matching tattoos
Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo will forever hold space for their “Wicked” experiences, thanks to their matching palm tattoos. Here are just a few local parlors where you and your bestie can cement your own eternal bond.
Grab drinks at The Ball & Biscuit
Mass Ave’s classy cocktail bar is stirring up drinks inspired by the “Wicked” films in its cauldron right now. Maybe no one mourns the wicked, but you’ll definitely mourn missing out on these cocktails.
