“EASE ON DOWN” TO THE KALEIDOSCOPE
A BRAND NEW PRODUCTION OF THE WIZ, THE SUPER SOUL “WIZARD OF OZ,” COMES TO HOUSTON
HOUSTON (May, 2015) – The Wiz, based on L. Frank Baum’s book “The Wonderful Wizard of Oz,” is one of the most riveting incarnations of this classic tale ever created. With music and lyrics by Charlie Smalls, and music by William F. Brown, the beloved story of Dorothy and her friends opened on Broadway in 1975, and won seven Tony Awards (including “Best Musical”). The Wiz was made even more popular by its 1978 film adaptation, starring Diana Ross and Michael Jackson. Bayou City Theatrics reimagines this soulful musical adaptation with breathtaking visuals, radio-worthy vocal performances and a whopping dose of energetic choreography! Bayou City Theatrics’ new production of The Wiz, runs May 15 to May 31, at The Kaleidoscope.
This beloved fairytale adventure is brought to life by a stellar cast featuring Melanie Burke (Glinda), Tyler Galindo (Gatekeeper), Ryan Frenk (Lord High Underling), Taylor McWhorter (Flying Monkey) and a powerhouse ensemble including Laura Althaus, Christina Bechtel, Maya Credeur, Alex Domingue, Reagan Ezer, Ashley Frye, Reagan Jones, Michelle Mayo and Victoria Riley. In additional to its incredible cast, an innovative production design takes a modern look at this 70’s classic, creating a magical, never-before-seen experience for Houston audiences.
