Our Next Show - Oban 2025 Panto - Jack & The Beanstalk
Oban’s Spotlight Musical Theatre Group are proud to present our first full musical production by our junior members. The Wizard Of Oz is a much-loved story, perhaps best known (still) through the 1939 film with Judy Garland. This tale finds us in the Land of Oz where Dorothy and her dog Toto meet many friends in their quest to get home. Some are good, some not so much but in the end it’s a story about using our brain in tough situations, having courage and is full of heart! The show will be performed at the Corran Halls Studio Theatre on Wed 18th and Thur 19th June at 7pm. Tickets cost £10 adults/£8 concessions/£32 family ticket (children under 3 are free but must be seated on an adult’s lap). Tickets are available from www.ticketsource.co.uk/spotlight-musical-theatre-group If you would like to make a group booking or pay by cash/cheque, please contact us at tickets@spotlightmtg.co.uk or 07759[…]
