Home Is Where She Should Have Left This Tragic Outfit

Ashanti attended the premiere of “Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince” in New York on July 9th.

The City Center Encores! Summer Stars production of “The Wiz”, which Ashanti played Dorothy, ended its limited run in NYC on July 5. The NY Daily News wrote the following about Ashanti’s performance:

Like the revival itself, the over-the-title R&B diva is hit and miss—a mighty singer with a voice that soars, but a limited actress whose face registers apprehension, delight, anger, whatever, with scarcely a shift in expression.

Hence, Dorothy’s big number, “Home,” which can (and should) be a tear-jerking journey’s end to self-recognition, made for a dry-eyed finale.
