Whats happening this weekend in the Peninsula and South Bay : The Wizard of Oz Bring your little ones of all ages to this cheerful, musical production of the classic adventures of Dorothy, Scarecrow, Tin Man, Lion, and, of course, little Toto too. Kids will love watching kids on stage: kids ages 8 and up make up the colorful cast of characters from Oz. And parents will love that the two early performances for the tots mean you can still go to Oz and back and make it home in time for nap! Fri., Sat., & Sun., multiple performances. San Jose. $12/ages 12 and up; $8/children 2-11; children 2 and under (on lap) are free. All Ages. Event details.
