SUMMARY:THE WIZ
DESCRIPTION:Part of the Broadway in Richmond 2025/2026 Season\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Tony® Award-winning Best Musical that took the world by storm is back. \n\n\n\nTHE WIZ returns “home” to stages across America in an all-new Broadway tour. \n\n\n\nBaltimore Sun raves “Powerhouse performances.  Stunning choreography. Visionary sets” and Chicago Tribune proclaims THE WIZ is “An eye-popping and high-intensity revival! \n\n\n\nThis groundbreaking twist on The Wizard of Oz changed the face of Broadway—from its iconic score packed with soul\, gospel\, rock\, and 70s funk to its stirring tale of Dorothy’s journey to find her place in a contemporary world. \n\n\n\nWith direction by Schele Williams (The Notebook\, revival of Disney’s Aida)\, choreography by JaQuel Knight (Beyoncé’s “Single Ladies\,” Black Is King) and additional material by Tony-nominated and Emmy-nominated writer and TV host Amber Ruffin (The Amber Ruffin Show\, Late Night with Seth Meyers)\, this dynamite infusion of ballet\, jazz\, and modern pop brings a whole new groove to easing on down the road.  Everybody rejoice!
