[@julieta8683]

Same here

[@darkhorse4122]

Anything with the scarecrow and the ease down the road was my favourite moments in the Wiz live. I saw this one first, and cause of this I believe people naturally tend to prefer the versions they see first, cause they get used to it. For example I prefer this guys singing cause I like the lower tone he uses, while Micheal Jackson’s higher voice is good but not my favourite style. But also I’m a alto so I tend to prefer less higher ranged voices

[@beatagrinspek1466]

I think they are pulling our leg here. Strange nobody mentions the event created on their FB page saying a show every Friday starting 21 August. There was nothing last week, so now they changed the date to 28 August - today, and again there is nothing. There would be no problem if they said they decided to stop the shows. But why are they keep promising things and playing games with our expectations?

@@tammymakokis8209 Girl you don’t even know me or who I am so you can kindly shut the fuck up. I have a right to my opinion. If I like the movie version better, I can say that. I liked Diana Ross’ performance in the movie too-and I have a right to that as well. I don’t view Michael as a god in the slightest, but I do prefer his and Diana’s performances over this. You sound bitter. Go somewhere else because I’m not the one.

[@haxdiyou]

I agree. Because yes the movie version is iconic but it doesn't follow the musical. Because Diana Ross literally threw a shit fit because she wanted to be Dorothy.

I honestly like this show better than the movie. I like the movie fine, and it to do with a Micheal Jackson, at all. He was amazing! But I feel like this show is just more energetic, more colorful, and just more fun than the movie. Again, I like both, but I love this better than the movie. Disagree with me if you want...
