The Wizard of Oz: Youth Edition

The Wizard of Oz: Youth Edition is a one-hour adaptation of The Wizard of Oz, L. Frank Baum’s beloved story of a young girl’s adventure in a magical land that has been entertaining audiences for over a century. This stage adaptation of MGM’s blockbuster 1939 film features the characters and celebrated songs from the film and brings the wondrous Land of Oz to life in a jubilant theatrical experience. Join Dorothy and her loyal companion Toto as they “Follow the Yellow Brick Road” through the Land of Oz, determined to reach the Emerald City, where the great and powerful Wizard of Oz will help them get home. Of course, along the way, Dorothy encounters witches (both good and bad), Munchkins, talking trees, and winged monkeys. But most importantly, she befriends three unique characters: a Scarecrow with no brain, a Tin Man with no heart, and a Lion with no “nerve”. Their journey to happiness - and self-awareness - is a glowing testament to friendship, understanding, and hope in a world filled with both beauty and ugliness.
