The cast of “Dorothy, Back In Oz” will be in Charter Square on Wednesday 21st August to promote their new show. They will be performing excerpts from the show at around 11.30am and 12.15pm (approx. 15 mins each), and they are keen to chat to the public about their latest production between the performances.
Created by Theatre Royal, Bury St Edmunds, it runs from Tuesday 20th to Saturday 31st August 2024, and this is what they say about it:
“After a huge storm hits Stowmarket, Dorothy finds herself transported back to the magical land of Oz, with only her trusty talking chicken, Billina, for company. But all is not well. The yellow brick road has been smashed and the Emerald City lies in ruins. The Gnome King now sits on the throne and he happens to be wearing a rather fabulous pair of slippers. Dorothy will meet new friends along the way who help her to overcome the Gnome King and restore hope to the people of Oz.
Following the success of last year’s The Wonderful Wizard of Oz by Mike Akers, we return to the Emerald City with Dorothy, Back in Oz, based on the second novel in L. Frank Baum’s Oz series, The Marvelous Land of Oz. So whether you have been to Oz a thousand times, or this is your first visit, an epic adventure awaits you.
Join us for this fun, high-energy, family-friendly musical complete with songs, dancing and an evil princess with interchangeable heads!” For more information and tickets, go to https://theatreroyal.org/events/dorothy-back-in-oz/
