The Fauquier Community Theatre will be hosting auditions for The Wizard of Oz for males and females age 5 to 18. When a tornado rips through Kansas, Dorothy and her dog, Toto, are whisked away in their house to the magical land of Oz. They follow the Yellow Brick Road toward the Emerald City to meet the Wizard, and they meet a Scarecrow that needs a brain, a Tin Man missing a heart, and a Cowardly Lion who wants courage. The wizard asks the group to bring him the broom of the Wicked Witch of the West to earn his help.
Auditions will be held on Friday, February 17, 2017 from 6:00 p. m. to 9:00 p. m. and Saturday, February 18, 2017 from 11:00 a. m. to 2:00 p. m. Callbacks, by invitation only, are Sunday, February 19, 2016 from 2:00 p. m. to 5:00 p. m. Auditions and callbacks will be held at Fauquier Community Theatre at 4225 Aiken Drive, Warrenton, VA.
