are you a good witch or a bad witch?
"Why, I'm not a witch at all! Witches are old and ugly!"
Oooooh, guess what's happening Saturday night! It's the Wizard of Oz sing-a-long!
Sing-a-Long Wizard of Oz- Ithaca Premiere!
February 12, 2005 - 2:00PM to 3:00PM; 7:15PM to 8:15PM
1939 > USA > Directed by Victor Fleming
With Judy Garland, Ray Bolger, Toto & Munchkins galore There's no place like Willard Straight Theatre packed with costumed viewers singing along to the classic road movie musical, The Wizard of Oz. Just like the Sing-a-Long Sound of Music we did a couple years ago, this digitally restored version of the 1939 MGM classic has lyrics on the screen, so everyone can join in the fun. So break out the blue gingham, rustle up some straw, find that old oil can, dust off your ruby slippers and come join us as we bark along with Toto, hiss at the Wicked Witch and blow bubbles when Glinda the Good Witch appears. A costume contest, prizes and a fun pack of props will make this an unforgettable event! Advance tickets available starting Monday, February 7. Call (607) 255-3522. 1 hr 50 min

How tempting is that?! I vote very, very tempting. If only I'd been Dorothy instead of little red ridinghood. And I would have been Alice this year, but I didn't get to it. I have the gingham, though. Yes, indeed. And some shoes I don't like that could be sprayed red with glitter!
Then, of course, I'd feel like an ass. Because I'd be one, perhaps?
Nevertheless, everyone should go to this. You know the words. I know you do.
It sounds like my kind of event: fun, kind of stupid, with movies.
And!
BrilliantEditor's "Living In Dryden" noted that there's a chocolate festival! While I have my doubts as to the true coolness of this event, it might be time to eat chocolate anyway. Even if it isn't sexy-cool chocolate.
Just sexy chocolate.
