About This Wicked Hen Party Dance Class in Reading
A Wicked dance hen party Reading works by drawing a line down the middle of the group. One camp goes full Elphaba — emerald, quick-witted and quietly the real heroine — while the other turns up as Glinda, all bubblegum sparkle and bulletproof confidence, and the routine pits the two factions against each other the whole way through. Usually the bride grabs Elphaba and the belting finale, leaving everyone else to preen in pink. It's a stand-off of two colour palettes and one wonderfully daft video.
That emerald-and-pink split maps straight onto Reading. Team Elphaba can go and sulk beautifully among the Abbey ruins and the lawns of Forbury Gardens, while team Glinda sweeps into the Oracle for pink cocktails and a sparkle along the waterside. After a full-beam Emerald City fix? The Hexagon on Queens Walk keeps touring musicals in its diary most of the year, so a real production is often on offer once your face-off is safely filmed.
Would you rather the emerald body paint never left the building? Easily arranged — your choreographer runs the whole showdown wherever the group has pitched up, be it a Caversham hotel, a Forbury apartment or a rental out across Berkshire. The size of the coven never nudges the fee: £140 covers the hour, £165 the full ninety, and a studio is booked only if you'd sooner not shift the sofa. A Wicked dance hen do Reading arrives fully drilled, green cackle to closing freeze, every second of it on film.

What Our Hens Say
Wicked hen parties we have taught across Reading.
"Twelve of us, six in green and six in pink, going head to head over Defying Gravity in a room near the Oracle. Utterly ridiculous, and the video turned out unreasonably good."
— Anwen S. ★★★★★"We got them out to the house we'd taken in Caversham. The bride threw herself into Elphaba; the rest of us glittered away on Glinda's side, and it landed far slicker than we had any right to expect."
— Maeve O. ★★★★★"No genuine dancers in the lineup and yet we landed a proper two-sided showdown, green against pink. The teacher's patience with a pack of total beginners was something else."
— Lowri T. ★★★★★"We ran the green-against-pink showdown one more time at the wedding and the room absolutely lost it. Hands down the best thing on the whole itinerary."
— Seren H. ★★★★★Wicked Hen Party FAQ
Everything you need to know about our Wicked hen party dance class in Reading.
Which Wicked songs will we dance to at the hen party in Reading? +
The big numbers do the heavy lifting — Popular for the comedy, Defying Gravity for the goosebumps, plus What Is This Feeling and One Short Day — and we'll drop in whatever else the group can't do without. If the bride leans green as Elphaba she takes the powerhouse solo; if she'd rather go pink as Glinda, that side steals the show.
Do we get to pick sides — green or pink? +
Picking your allegiance is honestly the best part. The group divides into a green corner and a pink corner, each learning its own flavour of the routine until the finale throws them together in one big rivalry. Who ends up an Elphaba and who a Glinda is down to you — our job is making sure both squads look properly good doing it.
How much is a Wicked hen party in Reading? +
It's a single flat figure no matter how big the coven gets — £140 for sixty minutes, or £165 if you want a full ninety — with a partner-studio room the only thing that might be added on. A gang of twenty is billed the same as a gang of six, so nobody's splitting a bill afterwards.
None of us have danced in years — is Wicked too much? +
Not a problem in the slightest. Wicked runs on character and huge, exaggerated shapes far more than on tidy technique, so the moves are kept deliberately simple and assembled a piece at a time. Throw yourself into the rivalry and the footwork looks after itself — green side and pink side land that final freeze in perfect unison.
Should we bring green paint and pink frocks? +
Entirely your call — it all works in everyday clothes. That said, the video pops when the Elphaba camp goes green and the Glinda camp arrives pink from top to toe, and loads of hens turn up with their own props and wigs. Just note we don't supply any of the costumes ourselves.
Where does the class run, and can you come to us? +
Studios sit around Friar Street and the Oracle Riverside, the exact room confirmed after you book — a short walk from Reading station on the Elizabeth line and mainline network. If your whole group is based together in Caversham or out towards Wokingham, we'll bring the full green-versus-pink showdown to you.
