For the past couple of months, I’ve been feeling a little uninspired. Sometimes I haven’t known what to say or how to say it, and honestly, that’s okay. Mentally, I needed to step back. When the incident that happened with Uber, when I had lost my phone I had lost access to The Wiz Historian TikTok. I was devastated. But I’m learning that we’re allowed to take breaks, have our moments, and even start over, especially when life gives us no choice. Starting over isn’t failure, it’s part of the journey. Every time I look at this poster, signed by members of the touring cast of @thewizbway a little piece of Oz in my hand, I’m reminded of why I do this. The Wiz means so much to me. Not only as history, but because of the joy, magic, representation, and healing it has given people for 51 years.
Whenever I’m feeling a little down, I remember: “If you keep on steppin’, you’ll be just fine.” I’m so grateful to witness, celebrate, and share the joy of this incredible legacy. Thank you to everyone who continues to support The Wiz Historian and to share this journey with me. Your love means more than you know. Still stepping. Still believing. Still celebrating the magic. THE LEGACY CONTINUES.

I’m finally allowing myself to close such an amazing chapter in my life.

I often ponder that if I had known my last show with @thewizbway were my last, would I have done it differently? I believe the answer is no. When I received the news that I had booked this tour, not only was I excited, but I knew the responsibility it would be to be in this cast, to tell this story, and to carry a legacy 50 years in the making. I realized how important this show is. I realized how so many people across the country needed this! The Joy- the Black Joy, the laughter, the love, and to witness this story being told in the style of themselves and their culture. So no, I wouldn’t have done it differently because every time I set foot on stage- I carried those truths in my heart.

Happy Closing to the 1st National Tour of the 50th Anniversary Revival of the Wiz! I’m so blessed to have met this cast, crew, and creative team. I’m so fortunate that my first ever Broadway tour was The Wiz. And I’m so grateful to say that I’m forever apart of this legacy.

I hate that I couldn’t finish this journey with y’all (injuries suck, haha)! But I’m so proud to call all of you my friends and colleagues.

Love y’all lots!
Thanks for a great time.
You made it! 💚

happy closing wiz!!

to say that im grateful for this opportunity is an understatement. getting to be a part of such an important and bright show like this has been one of the hardest, yet most rewarding things i’ve ever done. there were definitely hard days, but i can confidently say they’re were a million more amazing ones. swinging was hard at first, but through lots of trials and tribulations it ended up being so fun! this show has taught me so much about myself and about the kind of performer i am. i’m so grateful to have had the opportunity to be surrounded by some of the most courageous, beautiful, caring, and kind souls for the last six months. thank you all for accepting me into your family so easily. you all have taught me so much, and i’ll carry all of this newfound knowledge with me for the rest of my life.
until we ease again! xoxo, madison :)
