VIDEO] So the
Studio Movie Grill owned Chatham 14 Theaters still have those Black World Cinema every 1st Thursday. This Thursday,
The Wiz - released back in 1978 starring the late Michael Jackson and Diana Ross - will be shown
at the Chatham.
Black World Cinema's movie night this month at Studio Movie Grill-Chatham will feature "The Wiz" — and audience members are encouraged to sing along and dress in character.
The movie, starring singer Diana Ross and the late Michael Jackson in the "Wizard of Oz" remake, will be shown at 7 p.m. Thursday at the theater, 210 W. 87th St. Admission is $6.
Venisha White-Johnson, director of operations for the theater, said she hopes the audience will sing during some of the musical numbers.
"It's a fun way to engage the audience and have fun, too," she said. "We also want kids to come dressed up in their favorite 'Wiz' costume."
Free school supplies also will be given away, but White-Johnson said children are not required to wear a costume to receive the school supplies.
How appropriate that this event was scheduled because school has just started for the year.
