      Best documentary ever seen

      As long time fans of Todrick Hall, on Mother's Day 2017, my daughter and I went to Boise, ID to see the show Straight Outta Oz live. It was the most fun we have ever had. A few months later this documentary was being shown at a film festival in SLC, UT of course we had to see it! It was wonderful to see all the hard work & dedication that was put into this production along with the love & compassion all the Team had to make the show a reality. You will laugh, cry & ponder your own dreams watching this πŸŽ₯. It was so much fun to see it after we saw the show, it brought the great memories of the talent, dancing, music & fun! A must see!!

      "Nails, Hair, Hips, Heels"

      Such an ambitious project Todrick embarked on. It all looked so chaotic and I would definitely stay out of his way, kinda like the path of a tornado. But when it's Showtime and the red curtains fall, the show glittered brighter than those ruby slippers.

      I love the man Behind the Curtain!

      I'm always left in complete awe of Todrick and his immense talents when I watch his videos online, see him perform on stage, and I can say the same for this documentary. I'm in AWE! Getting the opportunity to see how much work he put into the music, visual album, and stage production from start to finish was beyond inspiring. Todrick is a force to be reckoned with! It's completely evident he put his entire heart and soul into this project. Katherine Fairfax Wright did an absolutely incredible job documenting every moment with Todrick and his team. I really feel like I got a true sense of life "Behind the Curtain". I highly recommend you check out this film, as well as all of Todrick's content on YouTube!

      Even as a hetero white 58 year old male, you just need to love him

      Respect and love, that is what I felt watching this documentary.

      No matter what color or gender, you just 'have to' love him.

      I only watched it because it was the last day it was on Netflix but it spinnen my head.

      He has way to much energy and ideas to just play a role on Broadway. He should be directing it.

      Even if it will never thinkable to physically love him, the world and for sure the USA would be a lot more livable.

      GOOD STUFF...!

      I never heard of Todrick Hall until a recent episode of Queer Eye's target mentioned he was his inspiration. Watching this doc, I can see the fascination. By sheer will power, Todrick puts on a show based in part on The Wizard of Oz & his own life, w/the barest of materials & the largest of gumption to get his music & message across. If only someone could bottle up his nerve & 'tude, I think we'd have another source of energy.
