More than 250 costumes, 85 wigs, 215 pairs of shoes, 112 hats, 89 pairs of gloves and 84 prosthetic masks are nearing completion in workshops all around the country.

A hundred people are required either on or off-stage for every performance and at least a quarter of these will be local to Manchester.

The cast, led by Nikki Davis-Jones (Elphaba) and Emily Tierney (Glinda), arrive for technical rehearsals on September 2.

Following the Manchester touring premiere, this gigantic production will then travel almost 4000 miles across the UK and Ireland as part of a major two-year tour.
