The Tony® Award-winning Best Musical that took the world by storm is back. THE WIZ returns “home” to stages across America in an all-new tour, direct from Broadway. The Baltimore Sun raves “Powerhouse performances. Stunning choreography. Visionary sets” and the Chicago Sun-Times proclaims THE WIZ is “An eye-popping and high-intensity revival!” 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. With 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!

News About The Wiz at Bass Concert Hall
Review: THE WIZ at Bass Concert Hall
May 14, 2026 The Wiz at Bass Concert Hall delivers dazzling visuals, standout performances, and plenty of personality. Hannah Beachler’s scenic design and Sharen Davis’ costumes are unforgettable, while Phoenix Assata La Freniere, Kyla Jade, and the charming trio of Scarecrow, Tin Man, and Lion keep the journey lively and fun, even when the score lacks the lasting punch of its famous Oz relatives.
Interview: Phoenix LaFreniere of THE WIZ at Bass Concert Hall
May 08, 2026 BroadwayWorld recently caught up with actor and singer Dana Cimone LaFreniere, currently appearing as Dorothy in the national tour of THE WIZ, about stepping into a production that understands exactly what audiences cherish about this groundbreaking musical while still daring to ask what THE WIZ sounds and feels like now. That balancing act of honoring legacy without getting trapped in nostalgia is part of what gives this revival its electricity.
