Following last summer’s sell-out production of Oliver! the Yvonne Arnaud Youth Theatre returns with a dazzling production of the timeless classic The Wizard of Oz.
When a tornado rips into Dorothy’s Kansas farm, she is whisked away over the rainbow, with her dog Toto, to the wonderful land of Oz. All alone in this enchanted world of wild forests, munchkins, witches and wizards, they set off on a magical journey, wondering how they’ll ever get home.
Along the way, they meet the Scarecrow, the Tinman and the Cowardly Lion, who join Dorothy in her quest to find the Wonderful Wizard of Oz.
Join them on the yellow brick road for this unforgettable story that captures the hearts of children and adults everywhere...
