[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the whole thing would go over the head of a 5 1/2 year old.  It doesn't closely follow the plot of the Wizard of Oz and parts are really intense.

I agree. Heck, I saw it on Broadway and wanted to sleep through it. Teenage girls appeared to love it, though.

Wolf Trap is going to have a screening of the original Wizard of Oz movie in July. It will be shown on huge screens in-house and on the lawn, and the NSO will play the original score as well. And no one would be bothered by a darling 5 year old girl at Wolf Trap.

I work in the arts and have several friends who work in children's theater. In the DC area, I would recommend:
