We're off to see the wizard.....










The Muny is an outside theatre in Forest Park that is open during the summer. One of the shows this year was the Wizard of Oz, which Beth really likes. As part of the show promotions, some of the characters visited the St Louis library headquartes a couple of evenings before the show started. We had to book in advance for the event (although it was free), but the really mad thing was that if it hadn't been for Beth's Nan in England telling us about the event we wouldn't have known (thanks Mum!).

The event was really popular with the function room being full & a queue to get in for the entire time that we were there. Beth really enjoyed herself. Some of the things she got to do included meeting Dorothy & the Scarecrow, doing some colouring & writing about the Wizard of Oz, playing pin the heart on Tin Man, try & win a prize by choosing a lollipop from a rainbow, & make her very own 'pet tornado'.
