The Wizard of Oz

 
Can't believe this is the last week for the A to Z Challenge. Today, for the letter W, is going to be about another musical, The Wizard of Oz.
 
I performed in The Wizard of Oz back in 2009, the second play I was in. I was in chorus, because there's more parts for children due to the munchkins and what not. It still was a fun show to put on.
 
Synopsis: Dorothy and her dog Toto are caught in a tornado's path and somehow end up in the land of Oz. Here she meets some memorable friends and foes in her journey to meet the Wizard of Oz who everyone says can help her return home and possibly grant her new friends their goals of a brain, heart and courage.
 
Lion, Tin Man, Scarecrow, Dorothy and Glinda (sorry she's blurry)




Me with the Scarecrow and me with the Lion. In the middle, I had to include the picture with me and the cutest munchkin.


 

On the left is me with the Tin Man and on the right, me with Dorothy.





The Wizard of Oz is based on L. Frank Baum's story, "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz". Personally, I prefer the film and musical versions as supposed to the book, but that's entirely my opinion.

I'm going to end this with one of the most wonderful phrases.
"There's no place like home." - Dorothy

Happy Reading and Keep on Writing!

  1. My husband favourite film! i always wonder why people in hurricane areas don't all have little holes in the ground with lids to go in while the tornado or whatever is going over. Seems so sensible. ~Liz My blog is at: http://www.lizbrownleepoet.com Blogger will take you to the wrong site.

    1. Thanks Liz for stopping by! That would make sense - it would probably save more lives that way. ~Meg
