Scarecrow (The Wiz)

The Scarecrow is the deuteragonist of The Wiz. He was portrayed by the late Michael Jackson in the movie, and by the late Hinton Battle in the Broadway version of the musical. Dorothy rescues him from a pack of crows and he joins her to get a brain from The Wiz.
==History==
He first appears in a cornfield where he is being teased and harassed by a flock of crows who say that he can't come down from the pole. After singing the "Crow Anthem" aka You Can't Win, Dorothy and Toto help him by scaring off the crows and helping him get down from the pole. He then shows Dorothy that his head is full of garbage and he doesn't have a brain. Dorothy decides to invite him to see the Wiz so he can get a brain. At first Dorothy doesn't know where to find the Yellow Brick Road until the Scarecrow manages to find it despite not having a brain. Through his journey with Dorothy he shows more of his intelligence by getting them out of situations, including how he warned the Tin Man of the deadly Poppies and hinting Dorothy to pull the fire alarm to stop the furnace fire and kill the Wicked Witch.
