ABOUT THE PRODUCTION
Based on L. Frank Baum’s novel The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, the musical features songs by Harold Arlen and E. Y. Harburg, including “Over the Rainbow,” “If I Only Had a Brain,” and “We’re Off to See the Wizard.” The outdoor staging combines live performance with the natural setting of Mount Tamalpais State Park.
Executive Director and Artistic Producer Eileen Grady said, “There’s no place like home, and we could not be more excited to return to the Mountain with this incredible cast and energy to present a one-of-a-kind magical experience.”
The production continues the Mountain Play’s long-running tradition of presenting large-scale outdoor musicals in the Bay Area.
