DESCRIPTION

When Dorothy gets her wish of escaping her dull Kansas farm-life, it brings her to a world she could have only imagined. Filled with munchkins, witches, and even flying monkeys, this wondrous new place is bright and exciting, but it isn’t home. With her new friends, Dorothy sets out to ask the all-powerful wizard to help her, help them all, return to who they really are inside.

A Note from the Artistic Director: L. Frank Baum’s works are so rich and beautiful; they deserve to be re-discovered by a new generation. This spectacular stage version has all the songs and heart that you loved in the movie classic.
