Last Friday, my family and I got to go watch The Wizard of Oz at the Children's Theatre. There are so many things I really enjoy about this theater. There's free parking nearby, ticket prices are affordable, the shows are family-friendly, and it's truly high-quality theater. Even though my kids are older and we don't really need "kid theater" anymore, the shows are such amazing productions that we still enjoy ourselves. My husband was laughing throughout the whole show, my older daughter (who loves theater and has been in several area productions) thoroughly enjoyed watching the technical side of the show, and my younger kid decided the best characters were the wicked witch and the monkeys. I was incredibly impressed by the physicality of several of the actors - the Tin Man, Lion, and Scarecrow really embodied their characters, not just with voice and acting but in a very physical way too! Overall, we loved it and are planning on checking out some of next year's shows too!

The show still runs for another month, and I highly recommend getting tickets if you can!
