At New York's City Center, R&B star Ashanti makes her stage debut in in a limited-engagement, semi-staged revival of the 1974 re-imagining of "The Wizard of Oz" (not to be confused with the 2003 re-imaging, the hit Broadway musical "Wicked").

From the theater:

"The Wiz," the 1974 rock and soul musical based on the beloved L. Frank Baum story about Dorothy and her adventures in Oz, won seven Tony Awards including Best Musical, Best Score and Best Choreography. The Encores Summers Stars production will be directed by Thomas Kail and choreographed by Andy Blankenbuehler, the duo who brought the Tony Award-winning "In the Heights" to Broadway last season.

What is City Center Encores Summer Stars? Each summer New York's City Center presents a semi-staged production of a classic Broadway musical for a limited engagement. The 2007 Summer Stars production, "Gypsy" starring Patti LuPone, became one of the hits of the 2007-2008 Broadway season and won 3 Tony Awards.
