Founded by Beth Sholom Congregation, Beth Sholom Community Players is a community theater group open to all members of the greater Jewish community and beyond. Our group's new name affirms our broader reach throughout the Philadelphia area. Our focus is on joy, teamwork, and community. Our goal is to tell a compelling story, not to achieve some sort of unattainable perfection. Come join us!
We are pleased to welcome our next door neighbor, Reform Congregation Keneseth Israel (KI), as our Community Partner, and offer heartfelt appreciation to Congregation Adath Jeshurun, our long-standing collaborator for many prior productions. We welcome members of the broader community to join the crew and support the production.
SYNOPSIS
The Wizard of Oz is a stage adaptation of the beloved film. The story follows Dorothy, a young girl from Kansas whisked away by a tornado to the enchanting land of Oz. She meets the Scarecrow, the Tin Man, and the Cowardly Lion, and together they seek the help of the great Wizard. With the Wicked Witch of the West hot on their trail, they must rely on their newfound courage and friendship. Featuring the iconic songs and characters from the 1939 movie, The Wizard of Oz is a heartwarming tale of adventure, bravery, and the timeless lesson that there’s no place like home.
