Interactive sing-along screenings of "Wicked" are coming to major movie theaters — including here in Metro Detroit.

Why it matters: Some musical-loving moviegoers yearn to belt out their favorite songs alongside the stars on screen, while others prefer to leave the gravity-defying scales to the pros.

Driving the news: Tickets for the special showings, which begin on Dec. 25 and run through Jan. 2, are now available via the film's official website.

Emagine and AMC theaters in Madison Heights, Canton, Livonia, Rochester Hills and other suburbs are among the roughly 1,000 theaters nationwide offering the option.
The movie's website also lists showings at an Emagine drive-in theater downtown on Monroe Street — but that theater is now closed, officials for Emagine and the Monroe property's developer, Bedrock, tell us.

Catch up fast: AMC and other big chains had previously warned customers to stay quiet until the sing-along version was released.

💭 Our thought bubble: We have a feeling these are going to be popular.
