Oi!
Have any of y'all watched The Wiz recently? (Movie version)
It's been decades since I last watched it start to finish.
It still holds up.
It's really interesting watching it with a shit ton of writing and art experience acquired since.

There doesn’t seem to be any other similarities other than being set in NYC and the musical contributions of Stephen Schwartz but “Godspell” (1973) and “The Wiz” (1978) always have very similar vibes to me

“if you’re listening, God, please don’t make it hard to know if we should believe the things that we see
Tell us: should we run away? Should we try and stay? or would it just be better just to let things be?”
this line from Dorothy‘s headline song “home” from “The Wiz” never really resonated with me … until recently
now, I think about it all the time

Currently re-watching the original #WizardOfOz (1939) starring #Jud6Garland, which was released 86 yrs ago, for the umpteeth time, which (for me) never gets old & it's still better IMO 4hat all of the later the variations, including but not limited to #TheWiz & #Wicked 1& 2.

#TheWiz: great show, great dancing, good music, but only one tune
Which will be stuck in my head for the foreseeable future

..oh, random #reminder cos i heard some fear mongering in the streets..
remember #comrades the increase in talks of the doom and destruction to come is only the constructed narrative of #thewiz masters ....and is ONLY a projection of their own fears...they know their end is neigh and try to weaken resolve with end of worlds "you'll pay for this, meddling kids!" monologuing bs ...
...i thinks that's called the extinction gasp?...
#rise for it is finally the end of the era of masters! #resist

It was a completely lovely #WizardOfOz-#TheWiz-#Wicked medley at the #Oscars, but Jesus, #CynthiaErivo is amazing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VOuedpHlxH8

The Original Wiz on Broadway was none other than Tony, Emmy and Grammy award winner André De Shields (https://youtu.be/EmflHWNkzeA?si=RjXBZzWwi-X974Bi) who is both still with us and performing at 79 years young

Called Service Desk for help. Watched him map two network drives for me, no password needed. I said "I could have done this by myself, all along?" & he said Yes, no admin password needed; anything else? I said "No, I feel like #Dorothy at the end of the movie!" & we laughed.

I’m a huge fan of Sidney Lumet’s 1978 film “The Wiz.” It’s an adaptation of The Wizard of Oz, reimagined from deep in Harlem.
The music is unstoppable. Especially Charlie Smalls’ tracks.
Almost 50 years later, a revival Broadway cast visited NPR to share their version. And it’s fire.
