I'm still hoping to see Anika Noni Rose as Dorothy..in ANY Production. And, unless they've done some decent revising since LaJolla she might be the only thing to make it worth the price of a ticket.

Husk_Charmer- That is funny since you NEVER saw it in La Jolla.

Anika Noni Rose will not be playing Dorothy.

NOT TRUE!!!! Actually Nikki was a great Dorthy and I think Anika would suck! I dont think her voice has a pop enouph quality for the role. Obviously they are going to have to find another lion and we know that nobody can work that role better than Tituss!!
The La Jolla Show was worth every penny for the ticket! You should have seen it!

Nikki was incredible as Dorothy. Titus was great. The rest of the show left a lot to be desired in my opinion. Granted, I also saw a very early preview that was chock full of technical difficulties.

Ya... they did have A LOT of technical difficulties at the begining. Once they got those worked out the show was great! Maby a FEW little things could be changed but for the most part the show was VERY enjoyable!!!!

Here's hoping that Anika Noni Rose breaks out into "And I Am Telling You..."


One time, Patti LuPone punched me in the face...


It was awesome.

Too bad "The Wiz" is soul and not pop....

I may not have seen it, this is true, however, unless I am fairly positive of my opinion, I don't make one, and the La Jolla version was CRAP.

Well then can you please explain to me how you can form your own opinion on a show that you never saw.
