Niwot High School did the musical The Wizard of OZ this year. It is the traditional, Dorthy from the movie Wizard of Oz. There are a couple of additional songs, but if you read about the movie, then you know those songs were actually in there but were cut. There were also a couple of added lines which were very appropriate. All in all, it was a delightful performance. It was pretty well acted, and real well sung. The Dorthy had a beautiful voice. The wicked witch was great. The wizard was a girl (Wizardess). The scarecrow and tin man did real well. We actually went to see the cowardly lion.
One of the boys from church, Eric M., had that part. He was great. he seemed a little tentative at the start, but got better and better as the night went on. And his mom was so proud because she made his costume, and he did his own makeup. We were so proud of him. His younger sister, Hanna, was also in the play - as a Munchkin, a tree and an Emerald City girl. She will have bigger parts as she grows older.
We enjoyed it, and a whole block of seats, right in the middle of the auditorium was filled by the LDS crowd, there just to see Eric and Hanna.
