The Jordan-Elbridge Musical Players announced their spring musical production.  This year, the students will present The Wiz on Friday and Saturday March 16 & 17 in the High School Auditorium at 7:30pm. 

Recently the production team met to discuss the overall vision and concept for this year’s show.  While similar in plot to The Wizard of Oz, JE’s The Wiz will transform the show into a fun, funky 1970’s throwback version.  Audience members will still see the well-known characters and they’ll be introduced to a few new characters along the way! Dorothy, the little girl from Kansas is blown by a tornado into Munchkinland in the Land Of Oz. While there she meets the Scarecrow, the Tinman & the Cowardly Lion on the Yellow Brick Road. She defeats the evil witch and goes to see the powerful Wizard who turns out to be a phoney. However, he is able to convince Dorothy that she can do anything she wants if she just believes in herself. Dorothy also realizes the importance of home and her family.  While there are some similarities between the 1978 movie version and the stage version of The Wiz, there are also several major differences!  Be sure to mark your calendars now and come see another outstanding Jordan-Elbridge Musical Players production! The Wiz is sure to please audience members of all ages!
