What’s OnThe story’s familiar–a tornado blows Dorothy Gale and her home to the Land of Oz, where she encounters a scarecrow who longs for a brain, a tin man who really wants a heart, and a cowardly lion who’s desperate to become brave and courageous. The elusive Wonderful Wizard of Oz is the key to all their hopes and dreams, Dorothy’s being to return to her home in Kansas.
James Barry’s adaptation of L. Frank Baum’s classic story The Wizard of Oz isn’t strictly a British pantomime, but it does contain many panto elements–bright costumes and scenery, over-the-top characters, witches, cheesy jokes, visual jokes, songs and dance!
