Delightful, Funny, Entertaining

See it if you are taking a young one who wants to see racially diverse characters that more closely resemble them than white-washed Hollywood films

Great singing, Hilarious, Enchanting, Intense, Fluffy

See it if If you love the original Wizard, and don't mind seeing the iconic characters as People of Color. If you love to laugh, and terrific singing.

Don't see it if You're expecting a Broadway-quality show. Don't expect to see The Wiz! or a Judy Garland look-a-like. This is The Wizard of Oz.. with music.
