There’s no place like home…

Join Dorothy Gale on an unforgettable adventure over the rainbow and into the magical Land of Oz in this spectacular stage adaptation of one of the world’s most beloved stories.

When a tornado sweeps Dorothy away from her Kansas home, she finds herself in a strange and wonderful world filled with colourful characters, extraordinary adventures and unexpected dangers. Determined to find her way home, Dorothy sets off along the Yellow Brick Road to seek the help of the mysterious Wizard of Oz. Along the way, she meets a Scarecrow longing for a brain, a Tin Man wishing for a heart and a Cowardly Lion searching for courage. Together, they embark on an extraordinary journey, discovering the true meaning of friendship, bravery and believing in themselves.

Featuring the unforgettable songs from the classic MGM film, including Over the Rainbow, Ding Dong! The Witch Is Dead, If I Only Had a Brain, We’re Off to See the Wizard and The Merry Old Land of Oz, this enchanting musical is bursting with memorable melodies, magical moments and plenty of heart.

With its spectacular storytelling, wonderful characters and timeless message, The Wizard of Oz (RSC Version) is a joyful theatrical adventure for audiences of all ages.

So, gather your courage, follow the Yellow Brick Road and discover that sometimes the greatest magic of all is finding your way home.
