Wicked Breaks Records with Biggest Broadway Film Opening

Washington, 25 Nov (ONA) --- Wicked is projected to have the top-grossing opening weekend of any Broadway musical adaptation ever in the UK and Ireland, as well as North America.

The adaptation of the hit musical is raked in over $114m on its opening weekend in North America.

That overtakes the previous record holder, Les Miserables, which brought in $103m globally on its opening weekend in 2012.

The National Association of Theatre Owners hailed it as one of the most successful November weekends ever at the box office.
