New musical thread

[East]

The Wiz used to scare me. A bit. Just a bit. Okay, more than a bit.

The painting people.

The subway monster.

Evillene, her slaves and factory.

But love the movie. Diana Ross was a bit over acting though.

LOL......I LOVE Diana Ross but you are right...she was overacting badly. I was embarrassed for her. The thing is...at the time she pretty much demanded to star in the movie and most people considered her too old for the part. I was lucky to see Stephanie Mills and she should have had the part.

I saw the Broadway play twice...once with the original cast and once with the touring company...the whole play is really inspirational for me because of it's message and actually inspires me to this day.
