    The timeless film, “The Wizard of Oz,” has captured the imaginations of young and old for over 70 years. We’ll discuss the significance of Dorothy, the Scarecrow, munchkins et al with University of Pennsylvania Theater Arts and English lecturer, DAVID FOX. And We’ll understand why PBS’ Live from Lincoln Center’s Executive Producer JOHN GOBERMAN thinks a live symphony orchestra playing in tandem with a screening of  “Oz” enhances the score.
