He's the wizard!!!
Back in the year 1978 the world was introduced to a new kind of land of OZ, this time with a jazzy soul twist, based on the hit Broadway musical of the same name! Now today 37 years later we get to relive the magic and emotion all over again! Tonight NBC let us relive the magical trip down the yellow brick road, for a whole new generation. This is an event for the whole family to enjoy all together.
This star powered cast makes this trip worth while. This production opened to a beautiful set of the little farm house in Kansas we've all grown to know and love. The cameras set on Aunt Em; played by the extremely talented Stephanie Mills. Mills is a Broadway veteran who at age fifteen won the starring role as Dorothy in the hit Broadway show 'The Wiz'. I found my self tearing up as she sang her first note. This was so beautifully sung,, such a powerful voice.
