Review: New take on ‘The Wiz’ brings more heat than heart

From: Mercury News  |  Date: 1/24/2024

As it is, the charm is fitful as the Emerald City dance party feels never-ending and the wonderfully funky diva poppies don’t live up to their promise. That’s a pity because JaQuel Knight’s choreography is mesmerizing and the dancers are uniformly impressive, flying from one lithe pose to the next, but the movement doesn’t feel connected to the momentum of the show.
