"‘The Wiz’ to return to Broadway following new national tour" by Broadway News' Caitlin Hornik - "Following a brand new national tour “The Wiz” will return to Broadway in 2024 for a limited engagement. The tour of this reimagined revival will launch from Baltimore, Maryland, in the fall of 2023 — the same city where the musical had its world premiere in 1974 — before landing on the Main Stem in the spring of 2024. The full touring schedule is yet to be announced. Dates and a theater for Broadway are to come, as well. The production will be directed by Schele Williams in her Broadway directorial debut and will feature choreography by JaQuel Knight, also making his Broadway debut. Additional material is by Amber Ruffin and music supervision, orchestrations and music arrangements are by Joseph Joubert." https://bway.ly/rdt1uw
