In one short day, something musical is coming. A new Instagram post from the Wicked soundtrack page invites audiences to "Join us here for a thrillifying proclamation" tomorrow October 9. Take a look at the post below!

The announcement itself is anybody's guess, though it could be the official track listing for the forthcoming soundtrack. Less likely, but still possible, is that a highly previewed track from the album- such as Cynthia Erivo's Defying Gravity or Ariana Grande's Popular- will be released in full. Still, eager fans will need to wait until tomorrow to find out for sure. 

Tickets for the movie itself will also go on sale tomorrow, including IMAX 3D, and early access screenings.
