Why ‘The Wiz’ is the Best Black Musical
'The Wiz' has the propensity for paying homage to black culture with R&B music, graffiti and jazzy elements that make it incredibly entertaining.
Graffiti
Soldiers in cars drive around the city day and night, erasing or covering with paint any drawing on the wall, even one that does not have political overtones. But for two “spontaneous protestors” - a writer who is refused to be published, and a young artist-photographer, whose art is also now not in honor, a kind of exchange of painted messages becomes the meaning of their existence in an era that seems to be not conducive to creativity.
