Legacy Theatre Announces the Cast for its Summer Spectacular, The Wizard of Oz
Starring as Dorothy, the lovely, bright-eyed girl from Kansas, will be Melissa Vazquez Cartwright. Ms. Cartwright was seen in The Legacy Theatre’s very first production “A Christmas Survival Guide” and most recently “It’s A Wonderful Life”. When not on stage, Melissa can be scene nation-wide as a video DJ on the Gospel Music Channel! The Tin Man and Glinda the Good Witch will be played by husband and wife team, Don and Shea Johnson. Shea was most recently seen in the Atlanta Lyric’s production of “Anything Goes” as the sassy songstress Reno Sweeny and on stage at The Legacy in “Some Enchanted Evening”. Don has performed professionally for many years and will be making his Legacy Theatre debut with this production. Don is currently the head of the Fine Arts Department at Landmark Christian School in Fairburn. Chase Todd, who is quickly making a name for himself in the Atlanta area, will be taking on the role of the Scarecrow. Chase was last seen in the Atlanta Lyric’s production of “Forever Plaid” as Jinx. Legacy Theatre audiences might recognize him as Ryan from last summer’s smash hit “High School Musical”. Dustin Lewis will play the Cowardly Lion. Dustin has been performing at the Legacy since it’s opening in 2006. He was last seen at the theatre in “The Spitfire Grill”. He worked all over the world as a professional singer, dancer, actor and choreographer for the past 16 years before making his home at The Legacy Theatre in South Atlanta. Bethany Hayes Smith will play the Wicked Witch of the West. She has performed this devilish role before and cannot wait to bring the mean, green one back to life here in South Atlanta! Bethany, along with her husband Mark, who is directing this production, founded The Legacy Theatre. Area professionals, dancers from the Doris Russell School of Performing Arts, and over 70 children and teens from the Legacy's popular Broadway Workshop complete this extraordinary cast. This production promises to be the biggest and best the Legacy has brought to their growing audiences! Ticket are $25 Adults, $22 Seniors 60+/ Students 13+, $15 Children 12 and under.
