Because The Wiz and The Wizard of Oz are two completely separate shows.

I didn't even catch that that wasn't Fantasia! I kept thinking that they had done a great job making her look a bit younger.😂

it just looks so RIGHT. I try to not get my hopes up because I've been so disappointed by musical film adaptations in the past, but I can't help but feel truly excited for this one. 

I would hardly call this rough or, my vote for most ridiculous comment heinous. Its a perfectly pleasant, melodic choral piece. It's not revolutionary, but it sure does the job and I have been finding myself humming it more and more as the days go by. Had this been composed by anyone other than ALW, I can just about guarantee that most of you wouldn't have thought anything of it. 

Forgive me if this has been discussed but I've been lurking for a while and didn't see it come up! What are the chances you all think that a pro-shot of the Broadway production will be filmed for release after closing? I feel like this could be a very lucrative move to sell VOD or to partner with a streaming platform. Having the true, historic original product preserved on film seems like a no brainer to me.
