If you have not been to see The Wizard of Oz at the Waycross Area Community Theater, what are you waiting for???

What are audiences saying about The Wizard of Oz?

"It was one of the best!"
"HIGHLY Recommend this play!! We went last night and it is FABULOUS!!"
"We went last night and love it. All the actors did a great job. But I have always been a fan of the Lion, and the young man who was the character does a wonderful job."
