The Norris Cultural Arts Center is resuming its "Wednesdays @ One" series from 1 to 2:30 p.m. Wednesday, May 5, at the historic Baker Community Center, 102 S. Second St. in downtown St. Charles.

Charles Troy returns to "Wednesdays @ One" after presenting "The Creation of My Fair Lady" in its inaugural season.

"Wicked," the most popular Broadway musical of the 21st century, plays off one of the most popular Hollywood films of the 20th century. Inspired by "The Wizard of Oz," "Wicked" presents the story of two female protagonists that has struck a responsive chord with theatergoers everywhere.

Troy's presentations employ a seamless blend of recorded songs, projected lyrics, original graphics, vintage photos, historic video and an extensively researched scripted narrative to dramatize the stories behind the great creations of the American Musical Theater.

Due to public health restrictions, seating is limited to 50 guests. Social distancing will be observed.

Admission is free, but guests may register to attend through a link at The Norris website, norrisculturalarts.com.
