The Broadway musical “The Wiz” will play Boston’s Citizens Opera House from August 12 – 24.  This marks the groundbreaking show’s first national tour in four decades.

In the mega-musical hit, young Dorothy is whisked off from the boredom of her Kansas farm by a tornado, only to be plunked down in The Land of Oz. As she searches for a way to return home, she crosses paths and makes friends with a Scarecrow, a Tin Man and a Cowardly Lion, each of whom is also searching for something missing in their lives.
