Premier
of Community Theatre in Todos Santos!
We know Todos Santos is a theater town because of its
historical Teatro Marques de Leon on the plaza. And
now, there is Luna Azul, a classically designed, outdoor
stage in Las Tunas built by Raul Cavazos and Isabel Smyth of
Blue Moon Productions.
Their premier, community production is
The
Wizard of Oz with a Todos Twist. Dorothy is now
in her 60’s, living on the beach in Todos Santos in an RV
and is blown to Oz by a hurricane. The play features some
of your local stage favorites;
Roxanne Rosenblatt (Steel
Magnolias, Nunsense and Baja Shakespeare);
Sharon Morris (Mother Superior in Nunsense); Vic
Kirby (Crimes
of the Heart); and Isabel Smyth (Blue Moon Theatre
Producer, Director, Actor); plus, over 40 folks from the art
community are contributing their talents, too.
Order your tickets and arrange for your overnight now.
The Wizard of Oz with a Todos Twist opens 3 weekends of
performances at the Luna Azul stage (go to
