Hudson To Headline Wizard Of Oz Concert

New mum JENNIFER HUDSON is to headline a free concert to launch the newly-remastered WIZARD OF OZ movie in New York’s Central Park.

The Oscar-winner will be one of several singers performing classic songs from the 1939 Judy Garland film.

The Netflix-sponsored show on 29 September (09) will conclude with a screening of the new-look film.

The Wizard of Oz concert will be directed by The Roots’ drummer and record producer Ahmir ‘?uestlove’ Thompson, who will also be part of the night’s house band.
