Sphere to bring Wizard of Oz to life in immersive spectacle
Sphere Entertainment has announced that it will bring The Wizard of Oz to life in a ‘fully immersive’ experience at the Las Vegas venue.

The original 1939 film, The Wizard of Oz, will be shown as a fully immersive experience for Sphere as part of a collaboration between Warner Bros. Discovery, Google, and Magnopus.

The classic film will be enhanced through the venue’s technologies, aiming to maintain the integrity of the original technicolour classic while also making use of the Sphere’s experiential medium.

The show, titled The Wizard of Oz at Sphere,  features Academy Award nominated producer Jane Rosenthal, as well as Academy Award-winning visual effects specialist Ben Grossmann, Academy Award-winning editor Jennifer Lame, and creative director Zack Winokur.
