Candlelight: The Wizard of Oz – A Classical Concert --------------------------------------------------- Music truly is at the heart of The Wizard of Oz — music is what gives it some of its most iconic scenes a sense of wonder . Just think of those dreamy moments in the poppy fields or Dorothy’s cheerful send-off from Munchkinland as everyone sings “Follow the Yellow Brick Road” . And the songs don’t just help drive the story, they give us a peek into the characters’ lives, too. With tunes like “If I Only Had A Brain” , we get to see what Dorothy’s newfound friends have their hearts (or lack thereof) set on, all while enjoying a good few giggles along the way. This season, Candlelight is rolling out the emerald carpet to invite you to a 60-minute concert celebrating your favorite songs from the Land of Oz. Picture a string ensemble performing classics like “Over the Rainbow” and “We’re Off to See the Wizard” while surrounded by a sea of twinkling candles . You’ll be transported via song straight to the land of Munchkins and flying monkeys with no tornado required ! So, come along for the adventure — live music by candlelight is just a click of your heels away... Candles and music and magic, oh my! Warner Bros. Discovery Global Experiences and Candlelight have officially teamed up to bring The Wizard of Oz classical tribute to you. And the dress code? Whatever your heart desires. Slip on your ruby slippers, greenest fits or other Land of Oz-themed ensemble — after all, we’re not in Kansas anymore.
