Call the box office for availability. The final weekend of performances is sold out at this time.

While similar in plot to “The Wizard of Oz,” The Wiz (usually) uses an all-black cast to transform the show into a more funky modern version. Dorothy, the little girl from Kansas, is blown by a tornado into Munchkinland in the Land Of Oz. While there she meets the Scarecrow, the Tinman & the Cowardly Lion on the Yellow Brick Road. She defeats the evil witch and goes to see the powerful Wizard, who turns out to be a phoney. However, he is able to convince Dorothy that she can do anything she wants if she just believes in herself. Dorothy also realizes the importance of home and her family.
