First Look at ‘Elphaba’s Retreat’: Cynthia Erivo Hosts Free Three-Hour Airbnb Experience for 20 Fans
Universal Pictures’ Wicked: For Good is bringing fans one step closer to the magical world of Oz with a special Airbnb experience called Elphaba’s Retreat.
The immersive event allows fans to step into the forest hideaway of Elphaba, the beloved character played by Cynthia Erivo. The retreat combines nature, storytelling, and hands-on activities to create a unique connection to the character and her story.
Cynthia Erivo, a Grammy, Emmy, and Tony winner as well as a three-time Academy Award nominee, is hosting the experience.
She shared, “Elphaba taught me that our differences are what makes us powerful. Her story transformed me, and I can’t wait to share that journey with you.” Fans will have the chance to explore the retreat, see iconic elements like Elphaba’s hat, broom, and Grimmerie, and take part in creative rituals inspired by her world.
First look at ‘Elphaba's Retreat’ ahead of ‘Wicked: For Good’ hitting theaters on November 21.
