The Wizard of Oz

Series: Community Benefit Screenings

Click your heels three times and return to THE WIZARD OF OZ (1939)! All proceeds from this screening go to Elbow Room and their work supporting intellectually and developmentally disabled artists.

When a tornado rips through Kansas in THE WIZARD OF OZ, Dorothy (Judy Garland) and her dog, Toto, are whisked away with their farmhouse to a magical land. They follow the Yellow Brick Road toward the Emerald City to meet the Wizard, and en route they meet a Scarecrow (Ray Bolger) that needs a brain, a Tin Man (Jack Haley) missing a heart, and a Cowardly Lion (Bert Lahr) who wants courage—and the only thing standing between them and what they desire is the dreaded Wicked Witch of the West (Margaret Hamilton)!
