The Wizard of Oz

Swept away from her Kansas farm by a tornado, Dorothy lands in Oz and on top of an evil witch. An epic adventure ensues as Dorothy tries to find the Wonderful Wizard of Oz and convince him to show her the way back to Kansas. On the way, she meets munchkins, flying monkeys, the Scarecrow, the Tinman, and the Cowardly Lion and discovers that she must help her friends first in order to face her fears and find her way home. Quintessence's production will explore L. Frank Baum's fantasia as political allegory and transform the Sedgwick Theater into An Oz you'll never forget.
