We're saddened to learn of the passing of Tom John, designer of the magnificent sets in the original Broadway production of THE WIZ. With the generous aide of @arts.of.imagination.foundation , we were able to highlight Tom and his art in the Winter 2024 issue, which was a real honor.
Shown: Emerald City / Wiz's throne room set by Tom John.
