The Wiz 2.0 pres. by Honeycomb Productions Outreach

The Wiz 2.0 is a vibrant, modern retelling of the beloved classic The Wiz, reimagined for today’s world with a fresh blend of culture, humor, and soulful music. Dorothy, an 18-year-old high school senior from Atlanta, is struggling to find her place after moving to Eatonville, Florida, with her Aunt Em and cousins. Her world is turned upside down when a fierce hurricane sweeps her house into the magical land of Oz, landing right on top of the

Wicked Witch of the East, Evamene, freeing the Munchkins from her reign of terror.

With a pair of enchanted silver slippers and advice from Addaperle, a stylish and sassy good witch, Dorothy sets off down the Yellow Brick Road to find the Wiz, a mysterious figure who might have the power to send her back home.

Along the way, she links up with the Scarecrow, a former marketing whiz who lost his brain after going up against the Wicked Witch of the West, the Tinman, who lost his heart, and the Lion, a former blues singer who’s lost his courage and his voice.

As they journey together, they confront not only the dangers of Oz but also the modern struggles of identity, self-worth, and community, with plenty of laughter and soul along the way. But Evillene, the Wicked Witch of the West, isn’t going down without a fight. She’s determined to get revenge and snatch those silver slippers right off Dorothy’s feet.

Full of cultural nods, powerful performances, and cultural excellence, The Wiz 2.0 celebrates the importance of believing in yourself, the strength of unity, and the power of home.
