Set to dazzle at NSA Festival of the Arts
This vibrant, feel good, award-winning Broadway musical is a magical retelling of Frank Baum’s The Wonderful Wizard of Oz.
THE National School of the Arts is proud to showcase their bright young talented performers during their annual NSA Festival of the Arts, running from March 6 to March 11, on the various NSA and Joburg Theatre stages.
Featuring a diverse programme of youth-focused productions, the NSA Festival of the Arts, formerly known as Festival of Fame, is set for a celebration of art, dance, drama and music that is sure to delight Jozi audiences.
This vibrant, feel good, award-winning Broadway musical is a magical retelling of Frank Baum’s The Wonderful Wizard of Oz – the modern American fairy tale of Dorothy Gale who finds herself in the mythical Land of Oz following a violent tornado.
The score is a dazzling mix of rock, gospel, R&B and soul, and the emerging stars from the NSA will delight from curtain up to the finale.
For perfect family entertainment, “Ease on Down the Road” with The National School of the Arts to the magical land of OZ. In a world of good and evil witches, munchkins, flying monkeys, dancing poppies, crows, mice and Emerald City Citizens, we find a message of hope, acceptance, love, and redemption. We recognise the lessons that Dorothy learns as she faces the reality of growing up in the happy and loving company of a Scarecrow, a Tinman and a Lion.
NSA Festival of the Arts is made possible through the generous support of the RMB Fund and The National Lotteries Commission.
The Wiz is showing at The Mandela @ Joburg Theatre on March 9 at 9.30am and 7.30pm, March 10 at 3pm and 7.30pm and March 11 at 3pm.
