The Woodland Opera House presents its Young Adult Performer’s Series production “The Wizard of Oz a New Modern Play” adapted for the stage by Jon Jory from the book written by L. Frank Baum. Set for 2 and 7:30 p.m. Saturday and Sunday, March 6 and 7, the play is underwritten by Music to Grow on Music Therapy Services Inc.
