The Dr. Phillips Center For the Performing Arts kicks off the 25/26 AdventHealth Broadway In Orlando Season with the Tony Award winning musical “The Wiz” September 30-October 5, 2025.

Based on L. Frank Baum’s children’s book, “The Wonderful Wizard of Oz”, “The Wiz” takes one of the world’s most enduring American stories and transforms it into an all-Black musical extravaganza for the ages.

“The Wiz” premiered on Broadway in 1975 and became an instant sensation, going on to win seven Tony Awards including Best Musical, Best Original Score, Best Featured Actor in a Musical (Ted Ross), Best Featured Actress in a Musical (Dee Dee Bridgewater), Best Choreography (George Faison) and in a Broadway first, Best Direction of a Musical and Best Costume Design (Geoffrey Holder).

A 1978 film adaptation starred Diana Ross, Ted Ross, Mabel King, Richard Pryor and Lena Horne, and marked Quincy Jones’ first collaboration with Michael Jackson.
