“Take a Seat” Auction — Star in The Wizard of Oz and Help Replace Our 50-Year-Old Chairs!

Harbor Playhouse is retiring the creaky seats that have served Corpus Christi audiences since the 1970s. To fund the upgrade, we’re auctioning the Emerald City Experience: a once-in-a-lifetime walk-on cameo in The Wizard of Oz (now playing May 16 – June 15).

What you’ll win

On-stage cameo as an Emerald-City citizen (loose one-size robe + floppy hat — easy fit)
Backstage tour and selfie with our amazing set!
Your name on pre-show projection screen + two comp tickets for friends

Eligibility — Age 12 and up. Minors (12–17) must have a parent or guardian backstage.

Performance window — Winner chooses any show from Fri May 30 through Sun June 15 (third weekend onward). We’ll schedule a 15-minute costume fitting the evening before.
