- I head up all of the set building, teaching people to use different tools and how to build things. Probably one of the toughest (set pieces) was the witch's castle. It's very intricate and very large.
2. What's your favorite song in "The Wizard of Oz?"
- "Somewhere Over the Rainbow." It's kind of a classic.
