The 2024 6th MME Grade Musical, The Wizard of Oz, is playing in the school's Cafetorium beginning Thursday, November 14 through Saturday, November 16. Shows will premiere at 7 p.m. on Thursday, Friday and Saturday.
About the Show
L. Frank Baum’s beloved story of a young girl’s adventure in a magical land has been entertaining audiences for over a century. This stage adaptation, featuring the characters and celebrated songs from the film, brings the wondrous land of Oz to life in a jubilant theatrical experience.
Join Dorothy and her loyal companion Toto as they “Follow the Yellow Brick Road” through the Land of Oz, determined to reach the Emerald City, where the great and powerful Wizard of Oz will help them get home. Of course, along the way, Dorothy encounters witches (both good and bad), Munchkins, talking trees and winged monkeys. But most importantly, she befriends three unique characters: a Scarecrow with no brain, a Tin Man with no heart, and a Lion with no nerve. Their journey to happiness – and self-awareness – is a glowing testament to friendship, understanding and hope in a world filled with both beauty and ugliness.
In addition to the 34 talented 6th grade actors, over 40 MME 6th, 7th and 8th grade students participate in this production as sound and lights, set design and stage crews.
