Wizard of Oz Sing-along Monday, April 4, 2011
Somewhere over the rainbow (okay, Glendale), a theater full of people who can't sing but won't let that stop them are about to sing their hearts out at the Alex Theatre's "Wizard of Oz Sing-along." Fans of the 1939 film are encouraged to dress up as their favorite character (a flying monkey? a twister? anything goes!) and compete for prizes in a costume contest, then sing along to the entire soundtrack, from "Over the Rainbow," "The Lollipop Guild" and "If I Only Had a Brain" to "We're Off to See the Wizard," "The Merry Old Land of Oz" and "Ding, Dong! The Witch Is Dead." In person: actress Dorothy Barrett (Emerald City manicurist), Judy Garland impersonator Elaine Horn, and Richard Stanley, onetime assistant to George Cukor. There's no place like Glendale! Alex Theatre, 216 N. Brand Ave., Glendale; Sat., April 9, 2 & 8 p.m.; $13.50, $9.50 seniors, students, and kids 12 & under. (818) 243-2539, alexfilmsociety.org.
