A classic tale infused with disco and motown magic: could it get any more awesome? It’s incredible score is on a rousing display, right on the forefront; it’s an electrifying, family-friendly piece of 24 karat theatre gold bursting at the seams with humor and personality; it’s a five decade-old gem oozing with everything you could possibly expect in a memorable musical and then some, and it’s hitting the stage once more, ready to blow it right out of the water!
Composer Charlie Smalls and playwright William F. Brown’s Afro-American adaptation of L. Frank Baum’s iconic ‘The Wonderful Wizard Of Oz’ quickly catapulted to the top of theatre-favorites - a stage sensation that redefined the term ‘showstopper’. THE WIZ exploded onto the musical scene in a puff of smoke in 1974 in Baltimore, after which it moved to the Majestic Theatre on Broadway where it ran for a mind-blowing 1,672 performances. THE WIZ brought down the house and shook up the critics, earning no less than seven Tony Awards, five Drama Desk Awards, and two Theatre World Awards.
THE WIZ’s new revival ticks all the boxes for an evening of great musical theatre - from a world-renowned cast with more chops than you’ve ever heard before to high-energy choreography; from eye-popping special effects to gorgeous scenery; from x-factor type of connection and heaps of chemistry to pure glee oozing from the stage into the audience; from TNT-type energy to all-round enchantment - you’re in for an experience you won’t ever forget!
