Dates for the diary as Dingwall Players release tickets for panto The Wicked Witches of Oz
NEW recruits will join old stagers at a landmark Ross-shire venue for a panto set to trigger memories for generations of people.
Dingwall Players are busy rehearsing for this year’s panto, The Wicked Witches of Oz, by Peter Nuttall.
The story is a familiar one with witches, a tin man, a scarecrow and a lion meeting with Dorothy and her best friend Toto in the Kingdom of Oz.
Together they go on a quest to achieve their dreams.
Sound familiar?
The panto is an adaptation of Frank Baum’s evergreen Wizard of Oz and as such has many of the characters you would expect – along with a few surprises, lots of audience participation in the shape of booing and, of course, singing.
