WHS Students to Present The Wizard of Oz

Westborough High School Presents…

The Wizard of Oz

By L. Frank Baum

With Music and Lyrics by Harold Arlen and E. Y. Harburg

When a tornado rips through her small Kansas town, Dorothy Gale and her dog, Toto, are swept up over the rainbow to the mysterious Land of Oz. There, they meet Witches--both good and evil, Munchkins, Monkeys, Jitterbugs, and much more! Come see Dorothy and her friends, the Scarecrow, the Tinman, and the Lion journey through this magical land to meet the Great and Powerful Wizard of Oz. This classic story comes to life March 3, 4, and 5th at Westborough High School!

WHS Performing Arts faculty members Anne Slotnick (Director), Alyson Greer Espinosa (Music Director), and Evan Doyle (Pit Orchestra Director) are working together on their third musical production. This year, they are joined by Jennifer Jango-Cohen, WHS Guidance Counselor, who is choreographing the show. Over eighty students make up the cast, crew, and pit orchestra, ranging from freshman to seniors. This will be the final WHS musical production for the ten seniors in the cast, as well as the many more members of the Class of 2017 on production team, technical crew, and pit orchestra.
