The Wizard of Oz, Porter High School’s anticipated musical, will premiere on January 13th -15th at 7 pm. Tickets will be available for purchase on December 16th online for $10.

“People should come because The Wizard Of Oz is a classic and the students have been working really hard,” said choir director, Caroline Woodard.

Not only are Porter students are involved in the Wizard of Oz musical, but there are also students from the entire district of New Caney who will perform and participate in the high school musical. Students from kindergarten to eighth grade will be involved in the musical as Munchkins in Munchkin-land and other stand-in characters.

“High school students are involved but also the munchkins from Munchkin Land are kindergarten to eighth-graders, so really the entire district is involved in the making of the show,” said Woodard.

For many of the students involved in the production, Wizard of Oz is the first school musical they have ever been in.

¨Im excited because this is my first school production, and I feel like it’s really fun, really positive and we all have a lot of fun. It is fun because I get to express my musical aspect of myself and also the acting aspect of myself. I also get to share this experience with my friends,” says senior Aaralynn Senn, who will be playing Glinda the Good Witch in the Wizard of Oz play.

In order to see the musical tickets must be purchased online before the day of the performance. Tickets for the Wizard of Oz can be purchased online starting Tuesday, December 16th at 6 pm at portermusicals.ludus.com.
