"Da' Hip-Hop Wizzard of Oz" Tour

LQ's Performing Arts Center was successful with its Tour of "Da' Hip-Hop Wizzard of Oz." This modernized version of "The Wizard of Oz" is a fun family event which incorporates the hip-hop culture with the appreciation of the other Performing Arts disciplines.

Play Synopsis: Dorothy is your average teenager, wanting to become a star. But, for some reason, she experiences great opposition from everyone around her. It is only when she gets swept away to the mystery Land of Oz, where she's able to build the confidence she needs to follow her dreams. Dorothy and her friends (the Scarecrow, the Tinman, and the Lion) travel through the Land of Oz in hopes of gaining the things they lack from the GREAT WIZZARD of Oz. But the GREAT WIZZARD of OZ will not grant their wishes unless Dorothy kills the Evil Wicked Witch of the Westside, Ms. Evilbean, and retrieve the Book of Dance. In figuring out what Dorothy decides to do, the audience is taken through a story of courage, trials, struggle, strife, jealousy, enlightenment, and triumph-all told through dancing, acting, movement, and music.

Policies and processes
  • We seek individuals from various race backgrounds for board and executive director/CEO positions within our organization.
  • We have community representation at the board level, either on the board itself or through a community advisory board.
  • We engage everyone, from the board to staff levels of the organization, in race equity work and ensure that individuals understand their roles in creating culture such that one’s race identity has no influence on how they fare within the organization.
