OFFICIAL CHANGE TO TONIGHT'S SHOW: The Wizard is not the only fraud we're dealing with this week! The weatherman is right up there with him! Due to the constantly changing weather forecast, we have decided to move tonight's show, Saturday, 7/7, indoors at our theatre. So please make your way to Jean's Playhouse tonight to see THE WIZARD OF OZ IN CONCERT. Doors will open at 6:30 PM and the show will start at 7:00 PM. We can't wait to see you tomorrow and know that the show will be just as special indoors as it was outdoors.

The tradition continues as NCCA kicks off its season with a musical in concert in the midst of the White Mountains, however, this year we are excited to announce that we’ll be performing right across the street from our venue on the North Field at Lin-Wood School District. A beautiful and open field with stunning views of the mountains will create the perfect setting for Oz, and what a perfect show to for us to partner with Lin-Wood School!

After the success of SOUND OF MUSIC IN CONCERT at the Pemi Base Camp, we wanted to try our hand at another family classic that would be just as stunningly performed using the natural beauty of the area as our backdrop. THE WIZARD OF OZ seemed like the logical choice. So come visit Dorothy and her friends as this beloved and nostalgic musical is performed outdoors by a professional company of 20 and accompanied by a 6-piece band.

Seating will be a la “theatre in the park” where we ask patrons to bring their own blankets and low-back beach chairs, find a space to set up, and enjoy the show! Concessions and Restrooms will be available. No alcohol or smoking permitting on school grounds.

Please note there is no tent, so if a performance is rained out, we will reschedule that performance for Sunday, July 9 @ 7:00 PM and your tickets will automatically be good to go – no need for an exchange! You may buy tickets at the event, but we recommend you purchase ahead of time as events have sold out in past years. Parking (including handicap) is located right on site and attendants will be there to direct traffic.

Sponsored by the Mountain Club on Loon.
