About the Show
“An eye-popping and high-intensity revival!”— Chicago Sun-Times
Everybody look around! The Tony® Award-winning Best Musical that took the world by storm is back and coming to New Brunswick. The Wiz returns “home” to stages across America in an all-new tour, direct from Broadway.
This 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.
Featuring a book by William F. Brown, a Tony® Award-winning score by Charlie Smalls (and others) and additional material by Tony®-nominated and Emmy®-nominated writer and TV host Amber Ruffin (The Amber Ruffin Show, Late Night with Seth Meyers), the production also includes "Everybody Rejoice" music and lyrics by Luther Vandross, as well as the "Emerald City Ballet" with music by Timothy Graphenreed.
