A Trip to OZ

July 23, 2008

Its time to enjoy a fantasy trip! With all the negative news out in our world, it will be a treat this Thursday, Friday and Saturday to attend the production of "The Wizard of Oz". Those of us in the business of selling homes have been excited by the theme of the Redlands Bowl's 85th season, "There's No Place Like Home".

This classic piece of show biz is based on the 1939 movie that made Judy Garland famous. The Redlands Bowl production is directed by Lifehouse Theater founder Wayne Scott. In 2000, Scott had directed his own version of "The Wizard of Oz". The scenery and the staging are very creative and the audience is sure to be transported to another time and place.

The show begins at 8:15 p.m. As always, there is no charge, but as the Community Music Association likes to remind us, "The shows are not free". At intermission the red bowls will be passed and a generous donation will keep the treasure of the Redlands Bowl alive.

Redlands may not yet have its "Emerald Necklace" but for three evenings it will have an "Emerald City".
