Barn Jr Productions Set for THE WIZ, 1/15-1/17

A Barn Jr. Productions featuring junior high and high school students from Kansas City Metro Area will stage 'The Wiz' from January 15 to 17.

Here is a hip, musical version of the classic novel, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz by L. Frank Baum. Dorothy's adventures in the Land of Oz have been set to music in a dazzling, lively mixture of rock, gospel and soul music. All your favorite characters are here: Dorothy, the Scarecrow, the Tinman, the Cowardly Lion, the Wicked Witch of the West (Evillene), Glinda, the Good Witch, The Wiz, Toto and more... Everybody knows the story, but now it's a contemporary fantasy for today-- mysterious, opulent, and fanciful. Join The Barn Players as we "ease on down the road" with THE WIZ!
