The Wiz Live! is a live-television adaptation of the broadway show by NBC. It aired on December 3rd, 2015. The show was co-produced with Cirque du Soleil. Since the orginal show began touring in 1975, this new version is the 40th anniversary of the original. NBC embarks on its latest musical holiday tradition with a live television production of the groundbreaking Broadway show that brought the vivid world of Oz to a new generation in a fresh, funky sing-along journey down the yellow brick road. Winner of seven Tony Awards, including Best Musical, the original show was a massive hit on Broadway and even spawned a feature film starring Diana Ross and Michael Jackson. Now, a Tony-winning creative team, the hugely imaginative Cirque du Soleil Theatrical, and a diverse cast of showstopping performers will come together to create an eye-popping new take unlike anything seen before.
