WE HAVE A SMASH HIT!
"...Amazing production! I could not believe it was produced in Singapore!"
"Better than the London Production by far!"
"A truly spectacular show!"

We present our most ambitious project for the year 2008-The Wizard of Oz. Written by L. Frank Baum. We have been fortunate enough to secure the rights to perform the Royal Shakespeare Company version, which is adapted direct from the Judy Garland movie, complete with all those unforgettable songs and characters! So far there has not been any attempt to stage this story professionally in Singapore, and we believe this will be a huge hit with children, teens, adults and families alike. This adaptation uses as much of the aura of the film as is possible to create in a modern theatre. Little Dorothy Gale of Kansas, like so many girls her age, dreams of what lies over the rainbow. One day a twister hits her farm and carries her away over the rainbow to another world. Come join Dorothy, the Scarecrow, the Tin Man, the Cowardly Lion and Toto as they travel the universe of Dorothy's imagination.

Includes the favourite songs Over The Rainbow, Munchkinland (Ding Dong! The Witch Is Dead)

If I Only Had A Brain, We're Off To See The Wizard (Follow The Yellow Brick Road), If I Were King Of The Forest,

and many more!

We put a smile on everyone's face with THE WIZARD OF OZ!
