The dancers were swarmed like celebrities as they descended the stage following Friday's spectacular opening of the Wonderful WizThe dancers were swarmed like celebrities as they descended the stage following Friday’s spectacular opening of the Wonderful Wizard of Oz at Duane Smith Auditorium.

“I think it’s brilliant,” said Terra Hite. “I’ve never seen a Wizard of Oz performance where Toto and the poppies along the brick road were real people.”

Other audience comments heard Friday evening included, “Weren’t the dancers fantastic?” “The tornado scene blew me away,” “The costumes were incredible, “I couldn’t believe the beautiful music and lighting and the technical aspects were just amazing,” “Susan is a genius - she’s really out done herself.”

“Susan” of course is Susan Baker-Dillingham who founded The New Mexico Dance Theater School and Performance Company in August 2004. Since that time she has created one grand production after another.
