South Plantation Drama threw the ‘70s party of the year with a high-end production of The Wiz. Embracing the disco-funkified score of this originally all-black version of The Wizard of Oz, South Plantation has diversified the cast, amped up the fun, and set this tornado of a ride spinning into an undoubtedly fun-for-the-whole-family experience.

Reuniting the directorial team that brought the acclaimed West Side Story to the Paladin Playhouse, South Plantation High School reintroduced Dorothy, her friends, and a cast full of flower-children in their afro wigs, bellbottom jeans, and platform shoes to packed houses to watch as they traversed the Emerald City of Oz, where nothing was ever exactly as it seemed!!

Opening Night was ‘70s Night! Audiences were encouraged to come dressed in their most fantastic ‘70s garb for a chance to win some fabulous door prizes!
