Charles Town Kiwanis to Present THE WIZARD OF OZ at Old Opera House, 7/24-27

By: Jul. 02, 2014

Join Dorothy Gale when she takes a magical journey over the rainbow and meets a dancing scarecrow, a man made of tin and a cowardly lion and together they face an evil witch only to learn what they already knew, that there is no place like home. All the magic that you remember from the classic movie is here and will appear live on the Old Opera House stage. Don't miss your chance to see Glinda the Good Witch, the Munchkins, the Aerobatic Apes, the inhabitants of Emerald City and the Great Wizard himself as they reveal the magic that we have come to know as "OZ". A cast of over 50 performers are ready to take you over the rainbow!
