For a $100 donation you can be part of the epic musical slated for July 26-27 at Stella Olsen Memorial Park

Wish you could be in this summer’s production of The Wizard of Oz, but didn’t get a chance to audition? Maybe you wanted to participate, but were worried you’d forget your lines? Well, here is your chance to be on stage. As a way to raise money for the show, Sherwood Foundation for the Arts is offering an opportunity for one walk-on Ozonian role per performance (adults 18 years and older). That’s a total of three chances to be a resident of the Land of Oz.

The donation cost of the role is $100 (tax deductible), allowing three would-be actors or actresses the chance to be a part of your community theater experience. It’s also a great gift idea for someone who would like the opportunity to “be a star.”

To enter the chance for a role, please send an email to the SFA with the subject “Walk-on Role” at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. by July 15.

In your email, please include the name of the person for the role, and the best contact information. Once we draw the names of three lucky folks, they will be notified and asked to schedule a time for a costume fitting.

The Wizard of Oz will be presented in Stella Olsen Memorial Park on July 26 – 28 at 7:30 p.m. To purchase tickets, please visit sherwoodarts.org. As a reminder, last year’s musical was sold out, so get your tickets now.
