Interesting things regarding the Wicked tour
-everyone on cast is highly unionized and of the 28 ish people, they all make near six figure salaries -there are about 70 people in the cast and crew -the company gives each cast member a really generous ($800 a week) living stipend plus a per diem in each city. They can either opt to live in a hotel together or use the money to find housing on their own -Mondays are blackout days for most shows, which means Tuesday is usually the worst day to see a show -this means Wednesday is the best day to see the show -other than Elphaba, all other cast members have a thirty minute call time and are done and ready to go home within 15 minutes of curtain close
