Review: Harvest Rain’s The Wizard of Oz playing at QPAC

February 12, 2012 by Vikram Goyal

 If you have grown up dreaming of skipping down the Yellow Brick Road then HarvestRain’s production of The Wizard of Oz is sure to delight.

The scene is set with Aunt and Uncles farm and literally whirlwinds you into the Land of the Munchins (played by an adorable chorus line of kids). Unfortunately the strobe lighting (meant to simulate the tornado) went on a little longer than my eyes could handle and set off a migraine. I don’t recall seeing a “strobe lighting” warning but maybe there should have been due to people with medical issues.

The Scarecrow (played by Shaun Kohlman) is delightful to watch.

 Dana Musil plays Dorothy and emulates Judy Garland to a tee but unfortunately the stage is stolen by the Love-able Tin mans dance routines (Played by Dan Venz) and the Mighty Lion played by (Matty Johnston).

Matty brings laughter to the crowd with his comical lyrics and scared lion mannerisms that left us with giggles.

This production doesn’t have all the glitz and glam of fancy staging or props but there is no compromise in fantastic singers and overall production. Definetley a must see but I would suggest unless your child is into evil witches and ear piecing cackling screams (Played by Penny Farrow) then enjoy a night out on your own and leave the younger kids at home.

As always the QPAC staff deserve a mention for their wonderful service.

Music & lyrics by Harold Arlen and E.Y. Harburg.

DIY Shirt Extender – Sewing Pattern

I like having a little extra coverage when I wear leggings, but I could never find a cute top that was just the right length. So I decided to make this Easy Sew Shirt Extender! This is so simple to sew and is an easy sewing project for beginners. It is easy to layer under your shirt or top of choice and I added some lace trim to mine for a fancier look. You can mix and match colors and fabrics to suit your needs!
