Produced by the McMaster Musical Theatre Group, the show had the crowds laughing and cheering as Dorothy valiantly tried to make her way home to Kansas.

The annual theatre event is arranged by the McMaster Employee Spirit Society (M.E.S.S.!) and those in attendance enjoyed refreshments and draw prizes through the generous contributions of McMaster vendors and the Office of Student Affairs.

After the show, the cast came out to meet audience members, much to delight of the many children in attendance.
