Can’t comment on how well, as I haven’t seen either synch-up.

We did this as a teen-only night program last winter and it was a hit, but a lot of adults approached me and said they would love to come to this if we did it again, so it was back by popular demand.
Here’s a hint for the synch…the film’s running time is 119 minutes, and the album finishes at about the time Dorothy and the Scarecrow meet up with the Tin Man… it can play through a second time with lots of additional synch-ups, and the album concludes just about the time of the demise of the Wicked Witch… which is good time to bring up the sound on the film to finish up the last 10-15 minutes.

Here’s some interesting links:
