Fresno Is Not In Kansas Anymore!
The greatest family musical of all time, THE WIZARD OF OZ, is touching down in Fresno as NETworks Presentations brings this national treasure to the Saroyan Theatre, May 11-12, 2010 as part of the Broadway in Freno 2009-2010 Season.
This magical production, based on the Royal Shakespeare Company’s celebration of the 1939 MGM movie, is presented with breathtaking special effects that will sweep audiences away, from the moment the tornado twists its way into Kansas.
Director Nigel West, choreographer Leigh Constantine and set and costume designer Tim McQuillen-Wright utilize the glamour and elegance of art deco Hollywood as the visually stunning technicolor backdrop for the WIZARD OF OZ. Dorothy, Toto and their friends the Cowardly Lion, Tin Man and Scarecrow are transported “Over the Rainbow” to adventures in Munchkin Land, the Haunted Forest, and the Emerald City.
