The Wizard Of Oz Countdown

There are not many rehearsals left for the Berlin High School Drama Club as it prepares for the District-wide production of The Wizard Of Oz. Twenty-four Munchkins from Berlin Elementary School will sing and dance across the stage at Berlin High School on Friday and Saturday, March 15 and 16, at 7 pm.  The Munchkins will be wearing special shoes created for them by Allison Kirby.
Middle School students hold roles as Munchkins, Guards and Ozians while the leads and supporting cast are from Berlin High School. The cast is anchored by Clarice Derosia as Dorothy, Nick Edwards as the Lion, Connor Brown as the Scarecrow and Cody Seel as the Tinman. AnneMarie Guerdan lights up the stage with her explosive performance as the Wicked Witch while Lacie D’Alessio has a soothing effect in her role as Glinda.
Reserved seats are not necessary but can be ordered by calling Maureen Seel at 658-3325. Tickets cost $6 for adults, $4 for students and a family max ticket costs $25. Families are encouraged to bring their child’s car or booster seat to make the show more kid friendly.
