When you arrive at the theater and see the gargantuan legs of the dead Wicked Witch of the West extending from the outside of the building, you know there could be magic inside. And the concert version of The Wizard of Oz at The Carnegie fulfills that promise.

This is a rather ambitious undertaking for The Carnegie, given the rather small stage: it’s accommodating 14 musicians and KSO conductor J. R. Cassidy as well as this expansive, highly visual story. But it’s all been managed with a whopping dose of creativity.
