Wizard of Oz at Hale Center Theatre was filled with heart and spectacle. Everything that happens in the movie, happens on stage even better. So many flying effects..the house, Dorothy and the bicycling witch all flying up in a tornado..then Dorothy landing in OZ and the witch flying on a broom stick. Throwing apple trees, mocking birds, flying monkeys, wild Emerald city people, Galinda in a bubble that floats above the stage, the great and powerful OZ projections and shocking jitterbugs... and the melting witch...and the hot air balloon going up ...just all the things. They changed Toto from a real dog into a puppet dog while in Oz and it was enchanting. The little boy puppeteer who managed Toto was amazing. It was so good and Addison was a tender, heartfelt, most perfect Tinman. I just can't get over it. Addison said, that if he was ever going to be in Wiz Of Oz he would do it at Hale center because they can do all of the special effects that make this show magical. It really did not disappoint. I also loved sitting next to Alfie and Tayla and watch them watch the show. It was magical!!
