By L. Frank Baum Adapted by Frank Gabrielson With Music and Lyrics of the MGM motion picture score by Harold Arlen and E. Y. Harburg Background Music by Herbert Stothart
Grayshott Village Hall
The Wizard of Oz
Young Dorothy is swept away by a tornado from her Kansas farm to the magical land of Oz. There, she encounters a host of whimsical characters

This playful stage adaptation of L. Frank Baum’s celebrated novel features characters and events not seen in the film.
The musical follows Dorothy’s journey to Oz with the Scarecrow, Tin Man and Cowardly Lion. Meet new characters like Farmhand Joe, Gloria of Oz and Tibia, the witch’s skeletal assistant. Featuring all the well known songs from the film, it also includes songs cut from the film like the Jitterbug. We are looking forward to bringing the Yellow Brick Road and the Emerald City to Grayshott.
