My purpose as your dramaturg is to research and answer questions. This site is a collection of reference resources and is intended to serve as a digital dramaturgy casebook for both The Wiz and The Hot Mikado. If you would like some information about your character or the show, don't hesitate to ask! If I don't know, I will find the answer for you!

 

This site is divided in sections with a page for each show (see below). I will include links to complete sources, but I will also condense the main points for you. The site is always a work in progress. As the rehearsal process continues, I will add information and sources as needed.
