Like an emerald, this precious Broadway gem infuses L. Frank Baums The Wonderful Wizard of Oz with a dazzling mix of rock, gospel and soul music. The Wiz JR. is a vibrant take on Dorothys adventures through the Land of Oz and a fun, family-friendly musical that is considered one of the most popular and creative theatrical adaptations of all time. Packed with iconic songs like Ease On Down the Road and Brand New Day, this musical includes exciting dance numbers which blend traditional movement from African culture with ballet, jazz, and modern dance! The Wiz originally opened on Broadway, January 5, 1974, a film adaptation, starring Diana Ross, premiered October 24, 1978, and in 2015, NBC presented The Wiz Live!, a live television adaptation of the stage musical starring Shanice Williams as Dorothy Gale.

As the oldest professional theatre for young audiences in the country, TCT has created lifelong memories for children and families for more than a century. The Taft Theatre has been home to TCT’s MainStage productions for 52 years but comes with challenges. TCT has explored several other space options, but ultimately all roads lead back to our original performance home – The Emery Theater.

$50 million has been raised to date including Federal Historic and New Markets Tax Credits allocations.

On December 22, 2023 TCT officially purchased the Emery Theater, breathing new life into the Emery, preserving its rich history while ushering in a new era.

Make a one-time gift here, or for a multi-year commitment, please contact Anne Venters at 513-569-8080 x22.
