THE WIZARD OF OZ Returns to the Washington Crossing Open Air Theatre

Set to run for two weekends, the beloved musical will begin on Friday, July 31 and continues through Sunday, August 9, 2015. Performances are Friday, Saturday and Sunday at 7:30 pm.
Based on the popular children's book by L. Frank Baum and made famous by the MGM film starring Judy Garland, The Wizard of Oz is a musical adventure centered on Dorothy Gale, a young girl unhappy with her drab existence on her aunt and uncle's dusty Kansas farm. Dorothy yearns to travel "over the rainbow" to a different world, and she gets her wish when a tornado whisks her and her little dog, Toto, to the land of Oz. Having offended the Wicked Witch of the West, Dorothy is protected from the old crone's wrath by the ruby slippers that she wears. In order for Dorothy to get back to Kansas, Glinda the Good Witch of the North suggests that she see the all powerful Wizard who lives in the Emerald City. As Dorothy and Toto head down the Yellow Brick Road to the Emerald City, along the way, they befriend a Scarecrow, a Tin Man, and a Cowardly Lion.
