All Wizard of Oz fans are encouraged to follow the yellow brick road to Windsor’s Chrysler Theatre for St. Clair’s rendition of ‘The Wizard of Oz’.
The show will run from April 19 to April 26. It will be put on by 44 performers, 36 of which are first-year students, alongside eight third-year students.
The production is the culmination of months of work that bring to life the iconic characters, songs, and dance, based on the original children’s book by L. Frank Baum, published in 1900.
Brooklyn Golding is in her third and final year of the program at St. Clair College. Golding plays the lead role, “Dorothy Gale”, in the production.
“It’s been a really fun time. There’s tons of color and energy and excitement and we’ve all had a great time in the rehearsal period,” said Golding.
“We’re in this beautiful theater with these beautiful costumes, and I think we’re all just so grateful to be able to perform here. It’s awesome. I’m having a great time.”
Songs like “Somewhere Over the Rainbow,” “Merry Old Land of Oz,” and “The Jitterbug” will resonate with fans of classic musicals with a lot to entertain theatregoers of all ages.
Performances take place April 19 and April 26 at 2 p.m. and April 19, April 24, and April 25 at 7:30 p.m.
Tickets are available for $25 plus tax for adults or $15 plus taxes for students and kids.
