Seeking performers in grades 4 and up for "The Wizard of Oz" Show. Please see the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. About the project: When young Dorothy Gale is swept away from her Kansas farm by a cyclone, she lands in the magical land of Oz. Determined to return home, she sets off on a journey along the Yellow Brick Road to the Emerald City to seek help from the mysterious Wizard of Oz. Along the way, she befriends a Scarecrow longing for a brain, a Tin Man in search of a heart, and a Cowardly Lion who craves courage.
