Official cast list |

Join Dorothy on her timeless adventure through the beautiful, magical and dangerous Land of Oz. It is a journey filled with unlikely heroes… a homesick orphan farm girl, a brainless scarecrow, a heartless man of tin, and a cowardly, fearful lion. Together they must face haunted forests, ferocious flying monkeys, an army of enslaved warriors and an evil sorceress, the Wicked Witch of the West. Will this ragtag group of travelers succumb to the dark powers of the witch, or will they emerge victorious and appear before the Great and Powerful Wizard of Oz to be granted the rewards they so strongly desire? All will be answered… in a city made of emerald in a land somewhere over the rainbow.

THE RETREAT FROM MOSCOW Runs April 18-26

OXACT_Retreat from MoscowTHE RETREAT FROM MOSCOW
Presented by Oxford Area Community Theatre
April 18-26
Oxford

Directed by Bill Brewer

A 2004 Tony nominee for Best Play, this play is about the end of a three-decade marriage and the subsequent emotional fallout.
Edward and Alice have been married for 33 years. He is a teacher at a boys’ school, perfectly at home with his daily crossword and lately engrossed in reading about Napoleon’s costly invasion of Moscow. She is an observant Catholic, exacting and opinionated, and has been collecting poems about lost love for a new anthology. Jamie, their diffident thirty-two year old son, is visiting for the weekend when Edward announces he has met another woman. RETREAT is about love, hatred, betrayal, sacrifice and the role that each can play in a decades-long marriage once the near-inevitable ennui sets in.
