A message from Ms. Chambers
This production started as a dream Ms. Chambers had back when she was in middle school starting to teach theater for the first time. And later she directed her very first production (a ballet version of the Wizard of Oz) her senior year of high school. It seemed fitting that her first full scale theatrical production would once again be the Wizard of Oz. It has been quite a journey and cost many sleepless nights, but Ms. Chambers believes you'll agree once you see; that it was all worth it. It truely has taken a village to make this show come to life, and there are so many thanks in order.
