Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo just proved their “Wicked” era still has a little magic left.
Erivo surprised fans during Ariana’s Sunday night “Eternal Sunshine” show at London’s O2 Arena, joining her former co-star onstage for a special performance of “For Good.”
The pair then switched gears and performed “Get Happy / Happy Days Are Here Again,” giving the sold-out crowd another dose of their musical chemistry.
The reunion quickly turned into an emotional moment, with Grande and Erivo embracing as the audience reacted to seeing the two stars back together.
It marked their first performance together since November’s “Wicked: One Wonderful Night” television special, where they performed the same two numbers.
Erivo had already said she planned to attend one of Grande’s London concerts, but apparently sitting in the audience wasn’t enough. Instead, she went from spectator to surprise guest.
The appearance came during the second show of Grande’s 10-night O2 Arena run, which is scheduled to bring her tour to a close on September 1.
For fans who watched Grande and Erivo become one of the most recognizable duos of the Wicked era, the reunion was a welcome reminder of their onstage connection.
Oz may be behind them for now, but judging by this surprise performance, Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo clearly haven’t sung their last note together.
