I have the Huge Mask for the Wiz sitting in my theater back hallway in Central Massachusetts. Can anyone use it? It is in perfect shape.

It is a large (when all put together probably 8 feet tall and 6 feet wide), scary looking Wiz mask with movable tongue, very colorful. Sorry, I don't have any pictures.

Thanks for the description! I think that might be to Wiz-esque for us, we need that 1640's Gilded Three Musketeers look! Thanks so much though!

Hey did you ever get rid of that mask. Music Theatre Louisville is doing it next summer and might be interested.

I still have it and would be happy to have it put to use but I don't want to hang on to it till next summer. So it's here for the taking.

The Wiz was a great show on Broadway. I saw it many times (actually, second acted it even more). The movie didn't do the play justice. Stephanie Mills beat out Whitney Houston for the role of Dorothy in the original Broadway production.
