      My wife and I have been to several theaters over the years. Local theaters are great since the productions are more intimate and though done with not a huge budget/props, are quite entertaining. So when we took our 5 yr old we didn't expect too much from this show. Let me tell you we got way more than we bargained for. The production of Wizard of Oz was fantastic. The costumes were top of the line, actors great and props really well done. We all had a great time and we are looking forward to seeing a show here again. Fantastic job, very well done. Collapse
