- www.playbill.co... The Wiz Live! featured a star-studded cast including Queen Latifah, Mary J. Blige, Ne-Yo, Uzo Aduba, Amber Riley, David Alan Grier, Elijah Kelley, Stephanie Mills and Common. Newcomer Shanice Williams, a 19-year-old from New Jersey, will star as Dorothy. This first look video peeks behind the scenes at rehearsal and dress rehearsal of the widely anticipated musical spectacular.
Shanice was perfect! Loved the entire cast. Well done.
Amazing how this was almost a year ago. I loved this production. Still waiting to hear if Shanice is gonna reprise her role in the broadway production
I going click my heel. three times
Rj Williams why
i just realized that one of my favorite actors is in this movie and now its 2019
Who?
When I first read the news that Queen Latifah was going to be the Wizard in this version, my reaction was "Sure, why not?" Making the Wizard a woman doesn't really change the story in any real way.
I grew up listening to The Wiz And my mom and dad they had me watch this. Well my mom did. My dad was working late and we watched this. Ever since I saw Queen Latifah And Mary J. Blige i wanted to be one of the characters. My dream came true when I got into my first few weeks of my Junior year of highschool. I performed so you wanted to see the Wizard as my song. Andrè De Shields versión and Queen Latifah’s versión helped me practice my dad helped me too.
I loved this version more than the movie. Still watching it on digital.
I watch on DVD a bit
The wiz will be shown on the youtube channel the show must go on next Friday
The costume design for this show was beautiful
Amazing pick for Dorothy. Wow I learned history the original original. Everyone killed it this on time on 11--22-17
I agree
Love how Queen Latifah and David Alan Grier were in Muppets Wizard of Oz with Ashanti years before
Thank God they brought this to TV! When I was a kid they played the Wizard of Oz on TV every year and it was practically required viewing. One of my favorite movies
This wiz live was so great In my opinion it was the best live musical done so far, besides grease Live
I remember watching this on thanksgiving. Man those were good times
Wiz: I, the all powerful wiz,have decided to grant your wishes. But...
Dorothy: Woo
Scarecrow: Woo
Tin man: Woo
Lion: Woo
Wiz: HEY! I said but. Did you not here me say but? There is a but coming.
Scarecrow: There's always a but
Y'all said but
😂
Me and my Son like The New Wiz. It was the 20's century version. Alot of dancing.
All involved did an amazing Job!!!!
Bless You All and Thank You
WOW, I never seen this! They picked a really good cast for this play. Now, let’s get the remake of the original movie 👍🏾
When it came out I was in first grade now I’m in fourth grade in 2019
This came out when I was in the 2nd grade I think... maybe 1st idk
@fxrrest Where the same age this came out when I was in Second grade too, I'm also in the sixth grade.
THIS ONE IS MY FAVORITE! I ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
I just noticed that there are 2 The Wizzes. The Broadway version and the TV version
3: Broadway, The Movie, and the Live TV version.
1:38 Awww Elijah/Seaweed! Also, David looks like George Clinton when dressed as Lion, haha.
I LOVE Queen Latifah - so this is a must!
Evillene should get her own origin story just like Elphaba. If the witch from the wizard of Oz can get her own story then so should she.
I BEG YOU TO BRING THIS TO ENGLAND!!!!
PLEEEASE!
This was a TV production not touring
I didn't actually go see the performance. I only saw the televised version, so as SOON as I saw Glinda with a beautiful golden dress instead of a yellow one and Dorothy with a black jacket instead of a magenta one I said "hold on a second!"
We need a movie remake.
This is going to be awesome
I'm Dorothy in my school play and since I did the play for ib night and now I'm doing it on March 2 2020
Can't believe I'm saying this BUT.....
#1- I loved the movie the WIZ
the moment I first saw it many years ago & I still do, almost if not more than the original.! Now having said that.... I'd just like to say that this young lady, Stephanie , is it ? is an absolutely perfect as the character *Dorothy*. She comes across sweet, vulnerable and I really like her character's look.
#2 I have always been intrigued(almost in awe of Diana Ross). I remember the summer of 1967 while working at the Jersey shore in Wildwood...I devoured any kind of news and reading material I could get my hands on regarding the *Supremes*... especially, Diana ! I simply Loved her look and that unique Voice.... however...
#3 Shocked at myself as I was, I could not help disliking her in the role of Dorothy. She just didn't seem to fit it as she appeared awkward and gangly and that terrible hairstyle( I couldn't stand it !!) She looked like a little old lady with a young face who just walked out of the the beauty salon sporting her new tight curl perm. On Diana Ross it simply did Not look right plus, it very much played against her supposed... Sweet Young character's appearance.
#4 Ofcourse all due respect to Diana Ross .... this young lady, Stephanie, fit, looked and play the part of Dorothy to a " T " !!!
Phenomenal
There is no place like home
WOW..........#you guys are good!!!!!!!!!
The dude in New edition
everyone was great thars all i have to say
can you watch this on streaming
I watch this
I watching it now from sky arts
Man...the Lion looks like Chewbacca!
I really have no problem with blaco Dorothy or anything, but ALL the cast is black? I still believe people should get roles for their skin color, but it looks lovely.
Wizlatifah 🤣
This is a tribute to Michael
I thought the wiz was going to broadway
Расизм! Все афроамериканцы! Как так?!
Да ладно, я шуткую. Это Америка...
I love the film version..Didn't care for this at all
Nah it was a refreshing and modern take on it.
AshTheBac The Wiz Live was extremely amateurish. Looked like a community theater play copy cat version of the Wizard of OZ. not unique at all like the movie version which is monumental and phenomenal
thewizboy um you don’t have to like it you are not the only person watching this.
I know i don't have to like it, because it sucked! but thank you
In my opinion the original is better but the modern take on it is refreshing I wouldn’t refer to it as crap but as a good introduction to the new generation of children experiencing this magical event and maybe encourage them to take a look at the original movie
This looks utter crap.
Well it wasn't.
No, you look like utter crap.
It was amazing, you internet troll.
Not looks. Is!
This looks absolutely nauseating & it is such a shame that they have gone & sullied the original film. Nothing about what I saw in this video makes me wish that I had gotten a chance to see the show. The fact that this many high profile names took the original & made it into this is proof positive that they are all completely out of touch with their fan base & reality. #I'MATROLL
Sweetheart there are plenty of versions of the Wiz. Why is this was so nauseating? Is it because they are black? Is it because the whole cast is black?
@@2516562101 I she meant the movie The Wiz when she mentioned the original
I know stuff 😂😂😂😂😂 hollering
