- (Early 1970s) Stage play: The Wizard of Oz - playing The Wicked Witch of the West, at the Starlight Theater, Kansas City, Missouri, USA. Back in the early 1970s, Margaret Hamilton played the Wicked Witch of the West at the open-air Starlight Theater in Kansas City, Missouri, with the three Hudson Brothers as the Scarecrow, Lion and Tin Man. Margaret, of course, delighted each of us in the audience with her signature witch's laugh, unchanged from the one she gives in the movie from 30+ years before. It is a memory treasure that I shall never forget.
