Join us for a special Black History Month screening of The Wiz — the beloved 1978 musical that reimagines The Wizard of Oz through a dazzling lens of African American culture, music, and storytelling. Starring Diana Ross, Michael Jackson, and an all-star cast, The Wiz celebrates creativity, resilience, and the power of community.
As one of the first major film productions to feature an entirely Black cast in a fantastical setting, The Wiz broke new ground in representation and remains a joyful expression of Black artistry and imagination. Come sing along, celebrate the music, and experience a classic that continues to inspire generations.
The Wiz is more than a musical—it’s a celebration of Black excellence in film, theater, and music. By spotlighting this cultural classic, we honor the creativity, talent, and enduring impact of Black artists in American storytelling.
