    Wizard of Oz scenery

    by zamtwin on 5/15/14Cadillac Palace - Chicago

    The audience was filled with families so that was a good sign since our group was made up of many under the age of 8. Do not expect this play to follow the movie exactly, it cut out many of the scenes so as to shorten the play. But for all who already knew the storyline, we did not need to question it. When Dorothy sang "Somewhere Over the Rainbow", it was at its best and I could hear "sniffling from the audience"! The scenery was basic, nothing to wow about BUT the acting was awesome! I never heard restless or bored kids in the audience so it must have kept their interest.

    Wizard of Oz was cute for kids.

    by tabbiem on 5/15/14Cadillac Palace - Chicago

    I saw a different showing several yrs ago that was more professional. The film behind the stage was sort of lame.

    The Wizard of Oz was STUNNING

    by TCal2 on 5/14/14Cadillac Palace - Chicago

    What an amazing production. We took our 4 year old grandson and 13 year old granddaughter, but purchased seats that would give us an easy exit if either got fidgety enough to be distracting. We needn't worried. They both sat at the edge of their seats for the ENTIRE show! No wonder! The cast was fantastic. They did all the original songs (and did a great job on every one), and fit a few new ones beautifully in to the story. I'm not normally one to make a big deal out of set design, but this was so well done I can't help but say WOW!

    Was a great show and we had a wonderful time. The revamp of the show and new songs really added a lot to the production. The use of new technology mixed with the traditional staging really made the show feel new.

    Witch was Great, but stick with the movie & Judy

    by CallisMom on 5/14/14Cadillac Palace - Chicago

    After growing up with the famed Wizard of Oz movie, and those fabulous movie costumes, this was disappointing. The lead of Dorothy seemed weak, but who could ever compare or replace Ms Judy Garland and her amazing voice? The best thing was the actress that played the Witch, she was outstanding! Outstanding! If you do see this, you will enjoy her performance, no doubt, and some of the new songs. Warning, I think this could give your children under 12 nightmares, no joke.

    Great evening suitable for the entire family

    The show was totally enjoyable and took on an updated feeling. There were humorous parts that had the whole audience laughing. I loved how they did all the scenery changes!
