Gale.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI enjoy working with my co-stars because they bring their joy of acting to the stage, which keeps the show fun,\u201d she said. \u201cThe actors of Lion, Tin Man, and Scarecrow are amazing to be around on stage.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Seniors Eli Stein and Blaise Staab were cast as Scarecrow and Lion, and sophomore Jack Stoecklein was cast as the Tin Man. These fellow friends follow Dorothy and Toto around the yellow brick road to earn themselves a brain, heart and courage. Freshman Kendall Seiler and her dog Karley were the best fit for Glinda and Toto, while the Wicked Witch, the main antagonist of this tale, is portrayed by senior Morgan Greenwood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI love about a million things about &#8216;The Wizard of Oz,&#8217; but I think the one reason I keep coming back to it is its universal appeal,\u201d Grizzell said. \u201cWhen I taught U.S. History last year, it became apparent how unfamiliar this generation is with the film and the story.\u00a0 It&#8217;s such a significant part of our popular culture, and it&#8217;s the &#8220;American fairytale&#8221;, so I have to keep exposing our students to this amazing story.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/tmpstage.ludus.com\/index.php\">Tickets are available for purchase online through the TMP website<\/a> or at the door.
