Follow the yellow brick road with CenterStage Theatre Company to a magical kingdom filled with munchkins, flying monkeys, witches, and the Wizard. The Wizard of Oz is a heartwarming tale of magic and fantasy, good and evil, and family and friendship. The score is full of tunes that will bring back fond memories from the timeless film such as “We’re Off To See the Wizard”, “The Merry Old Land of Oz”, and “Over The Rainbow”.
After a tornado whisks her away to the land of Oz, young Dorothy Gale meets up with a Scarecrow, a Tin Man and a Cowardly Lion. Together they set off to find the mighty Wizard, while struggling to keep Dorothy, her dog Toto, and a pair of enchanted slippers out of the clutches of the Wicked Witch of the West. Dorothy eventually learns just how magical friendship can be and how there really is no place like home.
