Details

We whisk you away to a quiet Victorian office in Chicago, USA, where author L. Frank Baum is sitting down to write his famous book, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. But Baum is in for a surprise when he finds a spirited little girl named Dot hiding in his house. He begins to tell her the story of Dorothy, her friends and the Wicked Witch - and together they turn the office upside down and transform it into the Land of Oz. Stuffing from the sofa, a potbelly stove and a bearskin rug become the Scarecrow, the Tinman and the Cowardly Lion. Age 6+. Running time approx. 90 minutes with no interval
