Follow the yellow brick road in this delightful stage adaptation of L. Frank Baum’s beloved tale, featuring the iconic musical score from the MGM film. The timeless story, in which young Dorothy Gale travels from Kansas over the rainbow to the magical Land of Oz, continues to thrill audiences worldwide.

This whimsical and imaginative production will surprise and delight with theatrical staging, an unexpected cast, puppetry, and more, while still appealing to even the most traditional of Oz fans. 

Featuring live actor-musicians from local English/Irish folk band THE RUDE SEA.


*PWYW reservations are available in advance in the Gallery (2nd level) and side seating (left and right of stage). If you're hoping for the center section, that is full price in advance online, but the center section does become PWYW on the day of the event at the door, one hour before curtain.

We unfortunately had to make this change because we were seeing an unusually high number of folks reserve PWYW tickets in advance but not attend the show, leaving empty seats and a long waiting list of folks who couldn’t be served. We are trying to make it possible to serve more folks and get a fuller house while still offering the discounted price.

Another difference between online and at the door: online PWYW begins at $5. At the door can be as low as $1. Again, just an effort to make sure more folks get to attend on the day.
