About The Wiz
The Wiz is a groundbreaking musical that reimagines L. Frank Baum's classic "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz" through the lens of African American culture. This Tony Award-winning production features an all-Black cast and transforms the familiar story with soul, funk, and R&B music by Charlie Smalls. Following Dorothy's journey from Kansas to the magical Land of Oz, The Wiz celebrates Black excellence while delivering powerful messages about self-discovery, courage, and finding your way home. With iconic songs like "Ease on Down the Road" and "Home," this vibrant reimagining has captivated audiences since its 1975 Broadway debut and continues to inspire new generations with its message that the power to achieve your dreams lies within you.
