Enchantment abounds as Dorothy begins her wondrous journey to the Land of Oz!  Good Witch Glinda and the Munchkins point Dorothy toward the Yellow Brick Road, a magical path to the Emerald City -- and we're off!  Off to see the Wonderful Wizard of Oz! All your favorite characters are here: Scarecrow, Tin Man and the Cowardly Lion. True to L. Frank Baum’s heartwarming tale, this version is as familiar as childhood memories.

Auditions for Carroll County Community Theatre’s A Streetcar Named Desire, by Tennessee Williams, July 20 and 21 in the Choral Rehearsal Room at 7 p.m. Parts are available for 6 men, and 6 women. About the play:  This celebrated play had a long and successful run on Broadway and the road. A tragic and effective drama which ranks as one of the greatest in our theatre. The play reveals to the very depths the character of Blanche du Bois, a woman whose life has been undermined by her romantic illusions, which lead her to reject—so far as possible—the realities of life with which she is faced and which she consistently ignores. The pressure brought to bear upon her by her sister, with whom she goes to live in New Orleans, intensified by the earthy and extremely "normal" young husband of the latter, leads to a revelation of her tragic self-delusion and, in the end, to madness. Production dates are September 24-26 at 7:30 p.m. and Sunday September 27 at 2:00 p.m.  Call 770-838-1083 for more information.
