Off to see "The Wiz" at Leland School

MyNorth.com video with Jeremy Evans and his Leland High school students about this year’s production of The Wiz, an urban take on The Wizard of Oz.

Leland Public School Drama presents “The Wiz”, the R&B version of the family favorite, The Wizard of Oz that takes you along with Dorothy, the Lion, the Scarecrow, and the Tin Man to the magical land of Oz. This spring musical remains faithful to Frank L. Baum’s story written in 1900 and is sure to be a treat for the entire family. The language is reminiscent of the early 1980’s and the songs are upbeat and memorable.
