Event

The Wizard of Oz
Film Screening

Recital Hall, Ann E. Pitzer Center

The 1939 award-winning film (Best Score and Best Song Academy Awards) is a perennial favorite that has been meticulously restored. The Pitzer Center provides comfortable seating and great sound for this Technicolor classic. 

A young farm girl and her little dog are magically transported into the enchanted land of Oz via a Kansas tornado. As they travel down Oz’s Yellow Brick Road to find the Wizard and ask him to send them home, they encounter a wonderful, funny, terrifying and, ultimately, enlightening group of characters, human and otherwise.

The film is based on the book The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, first published in 1900 and written by Frank Baum. Judy Garland, Ray Bolger, Jack Haley, Bert Lahr, and Margaret Hamilton star in this film.

Audience members can come dressed up as their favorite Oz character. Prizes will be awarded for the best individual and group costumes.

$10 Students and Children, $12 Adults (Open Seating)

Run time is 1 hour and 50 minutes.
