Are you looking to experience a little bit of the Big Apple in the heart of Boca Raton? The Wick Theatre and Costume Museum, 7901 North Federal Highway in Boca would be a great way to do so. Marilynn Wick, Founder & Chief Executive Officer of Costume World, Inc. She has devoted her life to amassing the nation’s largest collection of original Broadway costumes and wardrobes. There were soon four facilities scattered around the United States.

In April of 2013, Mrs. Wick acquired the former Caldwell Theatre Company space in north Boca Raton, resurrecting the vacant property into the Wick Theatre and Costume Museum which opened for business in September with its inaugural production of The Sound of Music. Costume World leads the way as the largest distributor of theatrical costumes in the United States. 

The way to determine whether a show is considered “Broadway” or “off-Broadway” is by the number of seats. To be considered “On Broadway,” a theater must seat at least 500. Off-Broadway can seat between 100-499 people. The Wick Theatre is considered “Off-Broadway” and an impressive contender in professional theatre in South Florida  

Consider taking in a show, a tour, or both at the Wick Theatre and Costume Museum. The Costume Museum is currently presenting a limited engagement of “The Roaring Twenties - Liberation, Celebration, Glitz and Glamour in 1920’2 Fashion”.  Reserve advance tickets  here.
