La Comedia Dinner Theatre
July 7-Aug. 28
Springboro

Heading down the Yellow Brick Road to find the Wizard and their way back home to Kansas, Dorothy, and Toto meet some new friends: a scrawny Scarecrow needing a brain, a rusty Tin Man needing a heart, and a Cowardly Lion needing courage. The Wicked Witch of the West tries to get rid of these intruders and claim Dorothy’s ruby slippers. With the help of Glinda the Good Witch and the awareness that they already possess the qualities they were looking for, success soon comes to them all. There really is no place like home.

The Children’s Theatre of Mason

Mason

Official cast list |

Set during World War II on an island in the South Pacific, Nellie, a spunky nurse from Arkansas, falls in love with a mature French planter, Emile. Nellie learns that the mother of his children was an island native and, unable to turn her back on the prejudices with which she was raised, refuses Emile’s proposal of marriage. Meanwhile, the strapping Lt. Joe Cable denies himself the fulfillment of a future with an innocent Tonkinese girl with whom he’s fallen in love out of the same fears that haunt Nellie. Both Nellie and Joe find themselves struggling to reconcile their own cultural prejudices with their feelings of love, all the while under the dark cloud of a war that is coming ever closer to their island paradise.

More so than any composer and lyricist who have written for the stage, the works of Rodgers & Hammerstein have become musical theatre classics that have forever defined the genre: Carousel, Cinderella, The King and I, Oklahoma, South Pacific, and more. Although the partnership’s final collaboration, The Sound of Music, was composed 25 years ago, their musicals are as solidly entrenched, as mass-adored as ever. SOME ENCHANTED EVENING gives the audience a chance to relive the best of the duo’s music in a single evening. This stunning collection of compositions promises a glorious parade of genuine hits.

  • Wed-Sat, July 6-9; dinner at 6:30pm, show at 8pm
