FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

The Wizard of Oz:
The Emerald of Flushing

 

 

April 2010

 

If you’re looking for a theatrical adventure for everyone in the family, follow the yellow brick road to FSF Community Theatre Group’s production of The Wizard of Oz.  You will be led to Emerald City by a talented cast who hail from all over Queens and Long Island. Director, Amanda Doria, a veteran of Queens and Manhattan theatre, stages the magic of Oz with Andrew J. Wheeler as musical director and Nicole Bilbao as choreographer.  This trio, along with a strong creative team guided by artistic director Maryellen Pierce is sure to create a production that will entice and enrapture audiences of all ages.

This is not your ordinary Oz!  The familiar Somewhere Over the Rainbow will be sung in this production, but the cast of Munchkins, Jitterbugs, and Ghosts make this journey to Oz exciting & unpredictable with its twists and turns.  One thing to be sure of is that the four friends are a fantastic group of performers: Dorothy is played by the young and talented Kate Brady, Ed Harley as the Scarecrow, Stephen-Louis Hernandez as Tin Woodman, and Peter Sullivan as Cowardly Lion.  Not to mention the ever-famous rivaling witches of Oz, the Witch of the West played by Nancy Keegan and the Sorceress of the North played by Shana Aborn.

Do not miss this quirky and charming production of The Wizard of Oz.  Performances are Saturday, May 1st and 8th at 8pm and Sunday, May 2nd  at 3pm. All shows are held at the Free Synagogue of Flushing, 41-60 Kissena Blvd. in downtown Flushing.  On site parking is available. Tickets are $15 & $14 for seniors over 60 and children 12 and under.  For reservations and further information call 800-260-6789.
