Wizard of Oz to Cast Magical Spell on Sphere Audiences

A beloved cinematic masterpiece, Frank L. Baum's 1939 hit film "The Wizard of Oz," is set to enchant audiences at Las Vegas' The Sphere starting August 28 and will continue through mid-September. Tickets for the spectacular event are priced around $104, comparable to those of recent shows like "Postcard From Earth."

As part of its ongoing effort to accommodate growing demand, organizers have reduced the runtime of the film to a thrilling 75 minutes from its original 102 minutes. According to Sphere representatives, this adjustment will not detract from the core storyline or message of the iconic movie, ensuring fans can immerse themselves in Dorothy's unforgettable journey.

Meanwhile, Las Vegas' live music scene is also buzzing with significant changes. Country rock hotspot Stoney's Rockin' Country is set to relocate from its current digs at Las Vegas Town Square to Sunset Station in Henderson, marking a new chapter in the beloved venue's history. As part of this transition, iconic band Yellow Brick Road will deliver a thrilling headlining performance at their outgoing location as the grand farewell celebration arrives.

The recent shuffle serves as a testament to the evolving landscape of local entertainment options in Las Vegas, where both timeless classics and electrifying live performances continue to captivate audiences with excitement.
