The Phil Takes Yellow Brick Road

Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Pictures

Saturday, Feb. 9 -10

The prestigious Erie Philharmonic will be taking its audience through one of the most beloved experiences in all of cinema. The Wizard Of Oz will be brought to life with a special screening of the classic, held high above the orchestra for everyone to see. With the 1939 film playing overhead, the Erie Philharmonic will be recreating the entire music score of the film, playing along to every scene. As is custom with the Philharmonic, the magic will come alive at none other than the historic Warner Theater.

Word about this one-of-a-kind event has been spreading rapidly around town, and you might want to get your tickets before the show becomes completely sold out (tickets still remain for the Sunday afternoon encore). The Philharmonic promises an incredible night that will make you feel as if you were galloping down the Yellow Brick Road yourself. Fun for all ages, our orchestra welcomes everyone to embark on the unforgettable journey that has made people all over laugh, cry, and cheer for ages. This live performance guarantees to have you strolling with Dorothy, Toto, and her newfound friends on her quest to find the one and only Wizard of Oz. — Charles Brown
