Family Flicks: The Wiz
**FREE ADMISSION**
------Appropriate for ages 7+------
Director Sidney Lumet’s The Wiz transplants L. Frank Baum’s fantastical world from somewhere over the rainbow to somewhere over the Brooklyn Bridge in this toe-tapping adaptation of the hit Broadway musical. Diana Ross heads up an all African American cast as Dorothy, who’s whisked from Harlem to a wildly re-imagined New York City, where she and Toto are befriended by the Scarecrow (Michael Jackson), Tin Man (Nipsey Russell), and Lion (Ted Ross) as they “ease on down the road” to see the Wiz (Richard Pryor). (1978, 134 MIN., DIR. SIDNEY LUMET) * * * * * * *
