‘The Wiz Live!’ was everything and more, with its all-star cast
and its stunning sets and costumes, it was simply perfection. Fans
flooded to Twitter with universal praise for the amazing production.
NBC was THE place to be Dec. 3 for an absolutely epic staging of
The Wiz. It featured a mega-talented cast headed by newcomer
Shanice Williams
as Dorothy, in her first major role. Her stage presence and
breathtaking voice made sure this was going to be an amazing journey
down the Yellow Brick Road. We can’t imagine anyone else doing such an
iconic performance so early in their career! She absolutely nailed it
alongside
Elijah Kelley, who played the Scarecrow, as they sang the classic “Ease On Down The Road.”
Fans came out in praise on Twitter for mega-thrilling performances like Wicked Witch Of The West
Mary J. Blige‘s “Don’t Nobody Bring Me No Bad News,” The Tin Man
Ne-Yo‘s “What Would I Do If I Could Feel,” and The Wiz herself
Queen Latifah‘s breathtaking “Believe in Yourself, ” which
Uzo Aduba‘s
Glinda reprised in the finale just to name a few. Every cast member
shined during their moment in the spotlight and knocked every number out
of the park. Here’s a sampling among the Twittersphere of fans
reactions to the milestone musical:
