The Wiz at Broadway at Music Circus

Through August 11, various times, Wells Fargo Pavilion, $40-$70

The Wizard of Oz is a gift that keeps giving, and this time the 1900 kid’s story is revived from the initial 1975 production of the musical The Wiz. Charlie Smalls initially produced the sounds of the one-of-a-kind musical, and it begins its Music Circus rounds this week. Following the exploits of Dorothy but set in the urban environment of New York City, the musical broke ground in Broadway with its entirely black creative team. Catch the show while it’s in town—the first time it’s been performed at Music Circus. 1419 H Street, broadwaysacramento.com.
