Inspired by L. Frank Baum’s beloved 1900 novel The Wonderful Wizard of Oz—America’s best-loved homegrown fairy tale—this vibrant production brings Dorothy’s journey to life through classical ballet, imaginative storytelling, and a dazzling cast of characters.
Set to a rich musical tapestry featuring selections from the iconic score alongside works by Aram Khachaturian and Mikhail Glinka, PDT’s Wizard of Oz blends whimsical magic with early twentieth-century American charm: Kansas cyclones, ruby slippers, a scarecrow in search of a brain, a tender-hearted tin man, and a lion learning to roar with courage.
A timeless tale with universal appeal, The Wizard of Oz invites audiences of all ages to follow the Yellow Brick Road and rediscover the power of friendship, imagination, and home.

The Welcome Project PA is 
excited to welcome Dr. Lucas F.W. Wilson to lead a presentation and 
conversation about his book Shame-Sex Attraction, to discuss the harmful
 effects of conversion therapy, and to learn how to be better informed 
and supportive of LGBT+ individuals.&nbsp;
This will be a timely discussion, because as of&nbsp;March
 31, 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court [8-1] overturned Colorado's 2019 law 
banning conversion therapy for minors, ruling it violated counselors' 
First Amendment free speech rights.&nbsp;
So join us for this important evening of learning, dialogue, and solidarity.

 Tickets: in the registration you will have the option to donate. All 
proceeds from this event will go to support our intersectional work with
 LGBT+ and Immigrant communities.Thank you for Widening the Welcome!!Register here:&nbsp;<a href="https://wl.donorperfect.net/weblink/WebLink.aspx?name=E357288&amp;id=86" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">wl.donorperfect.net/weblink/WebLink.aspx?name=E357288&amp;id=86</a>
