Oz! (retold) logo.jpg

Skip down the yellow brick road like you never have before, with this comedic retelling of L. Frank Baum's 1900's children's novel, The Wizard of Oz. Dorothy is a shy girl from Minnesota, who constantly clings to her stuffed dog toto, until one day she is flown by tornado to the land of Oz. In Oz, Dorothy learns to make friends with a peculiar set of characters! A scarecrow who learns to problem solve, tinman who learns to feel, and a lion who learns to be brave - all while out-running a wicked witch, who just wants to dance!

 

Oz! (retold) runs approx. 2 hours in length, with a 15 minute intermission, and is most enjoyed by audiences age 5 and up.

 

Performances will be held at Lakeville Area Arts Center (20965 Holyoke Ave. Lakeville, 55044)​
