Dorothy, a shy Harlem schoolteacher, is miraculously whisked away to an urban fantasy land called Oz (that looks like a crazy(ier) version of NYC!). After accidentally killing the wicked witch Evemean upon her arrival, Dorothy is told about The Wiz, a wizard who can help her get back to New York City. On her journey she’s joined by new friends Scarecrow, Tin Man, and the Cowardly Lion, but they are pursued by Evillene, the evil sister of Evermean. 

Sing along to this soulful reimagining of The Wizard of Oz, which features memorable, soul-stirring classics like “You Can't Win, You Can't Break Even,” “If You Believe In Yourself”, Everybody Rejoice/A Brand New Day”, “and “Ease on Down the Road”!
