Notes:

This is not your forum to identify and call out specific people just to call them assholes. Call out general actions you find reprehensible, mod ability/inability, that kind of stuff, but once you get into what basically amounts to 'this person is a stupid bitch and here are some icons/an lj layout/add. info to identify them with' - no.

I'm thinking Porgy & Bess, but that's an opera, or The Wiz?

My first thought was Once On This Island, but that may just be because it's the only musical with an all-black cast I can name off the top of my head.

Based on the image URL, you're probably right...

... wow, I didn't even notice that. I'm so observant!

Wait. The Wiz is supposed to have a black cast? I've seen it done by a couple of local high schools but they couldn't have cast it that way even if they'd gotten everyone African in the school.

I think it is, originally.

I'm a white person who once played Dorothy in The Wiz, and honestly, for all everyone tried to say there was no reason it didn't work with a white cast, the script is really full of black 70's culture and it embarrasses me to admit I was ever in it, now. It's maybe not as overt as other examples, but from the dialogue to the character archetypes to some of the jokes, plus the greater emphasis on the emancipation of the Winkies than the musical of The Wizard of Oz... it's definitely obvious.

I really, really love the music, though. I'm not going to pass judgement on white casts doing The Wiz, but I will say that trying to pretend it doesn't make any difference is straight-up lying.
