As we continue our journey to the Emerald City, we’ll turn our focus from the story and characters of The Wiz to some of the other aspects you can expect when the national tour arrives at a theatre near you. While the story may feel familiar to those who have visited the land of Oz before, there’s much that makes this production of The Wiz unique, beyond Dorothy’s adventure with her friends. From the music to the costumes, and of course, the lighting and sets, there’s an entire vibrant world to explore within the musical!

In this Box Seat Babes podcast episode, hosts Brian Kitson and RJ Miller-Zelinko discuss everything else that helps to capture the magic of The Wiz. How did the use of set pieces and backdrop help to transport audiences to Oz? What about the costumes helped bring the characters to life? What songs spoke to these two babes? It’s time to dive into that and more in our The Wiz music and technical aspect discussion!
