With the long awaited Wicked: For Good now showing in cinemas, it’s fair to say fans will be talking about this for weeks!
Here at WonderDays we believe the magic shouldn’t just be limited to the big screen but also in life. It’s the little moments, thoughtful gestures that leave the lasting effects. With our incredible range of experiences, there truly is a suitable activity for everyone.
To prove it I’ve set myself the challenge – to find the perfect activity for each character. They are such an eclectic and diverse bunch, but I’m determined to prove myself right. P.S if you are wondering why the Tin Man and the Scarecrow are missing you will find out in part 2.
Glinda – Tranquil Spa Day and Afternoon Tea
Honestly, it’s very hard to choose just one as there are so many she’d like, but the Tranquil spa Day and Afternoon Tea has that perfect combination of self-care and classy refreshment that Glinda would love. This experience will simply melt any daily stresses away and leave you looking and feeling fabulous.
Elphaba - Indoor skydiving Experience
We are conveniently forgetting that the Wicked Witch of the West can already defy gravity for this one, but if there’s one thing Elphaba loves it’s flying. If she doesn’t have her broomstick with her this is the next best option. You can make it possible and try defying gravity yourself with our indoor skydiving experience!
Prince Fiyero – Zipworld Velocity
As he makes clear in his musical number Dancing Through Life, Prince Fiyero doesn’t like to take things too seriously and enjoys living in the moment. The Zip-World Velocity would be an experience he’d love, and instead of dancing he’ll be ziplining through life instead. Maybe if they ever decide to make a third film, he’ll have a song about ziplining.
Nessarose - London Jazz Dinner River Cruise
There are plenty of accessible activities, including accessible skiing! But Nessarose is a character who values her independence above all else. I think she’d enjoy London Jazz dinner River Cruise, what’s not to love? Live music, sparkling city lights, delicious food – this would certainly not be a night to forget anytime soon!
Boq - Gemstone Jewellery Making Workshop
Boq may not be the most adventurous of characters, but he would enjoy an activity that allows him to focus and channel creativity, to impress a certain someone very important to him who adores all things sparkly (Glinda). So the Gemstone Jewellery Making Workshop is perfect.
Dorothy Gale – Movie Night Gift Hamper
Our beloved heroine would not wish to travel too far away from home for obvious reasons and would prefer an activity that keeps feet and her house perfectly planted on the ground. That’s ok, not all our experiences warrant leaving the house.
With our movie night gift hamper, you can enjoy tasty snacks from the comfort and relaxation of your own home, because let’s face it, there’s no place like home.
Toto – Family Pet Photoshoot Fun
Yes, even Toto the dog gets his own activity. A personalised pet photoshoot would be perfect, with all the attention on him. Once his photoshoot is finished, I’m sure Dorothy would be delighted to frame the complimentary print in pride of place!
Cowardly Lion – Wellness Spa Day with Stress Relieving Massage & Reiki
It would have been only too easy to choose one of our big cat experiences, but I believe the lion would appreciate an activity more inclined to chill him out to enjoy the therapeutic treatments. Maybe he would then feel relaxed enough to work on finding his inner strength.
Madame Morrible – Potion Making Experience
There’s no doubt that she would enjoy an activity truly miraculous, and at WonderDays we have many spine-tingling activities that touch on the magical.
Luckily for us, there is no need to be accepted into the University of Shiz to learn the secrets of magic and witchcraft with this potion making experience!
The Wizard of Oz – Balloon Flight
The Wizard of Oz would be sure to choose a balloon flight, after all he has a spectacular grandiose balloon of his own.
For one short day, float up and away from the Emerald City on a hot air balloon ride!
Several notable movie scenes used outdoor backdrops situated around Hertfordshire, Buckinghamshire and Norfolk. Luckily, we offer flights across those counties, and you may even be able to see some key shooting locations with the right weather conditions as you float across the sky!
For the ultimate Wicked Fans
See the amazing musical production yourself, in all its glitz and glam in London’s West End with our Wicked theatre tickets. Seats are typically in the Grand circle but entirely depending on availability. Combine a West-end production with a 1- or 2-night stay to conjure up your own magical mini-break!
