a Purple Door Youth Theater production
by Rochelle Norbert
Journey over the rainbow to a magical kingdom where four unlikely friends discover wisdom, compassion, courage, and the way home.
When a tornado rips through Kansas, Dorothy and her dog, Toto, are whisked away in their house to the magical land of Oz. They follow the Yellow Brick Road toward the Emerald City to meet the Wizard, and en route they meet a Scarecrow who needs a brain, a Tinman who is missing a heart, and a Cowardly Lion who wants courage. The wizard asks the group to extinguish the Wicked Witch of the West to earn his help. This is a non-musical version of the Frank Baum story, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz.

Venue: Northfield Arts Guild Theater, 411 Third Street West, Northfield.
Tickets: $10.00
Directed by Rachel Haider (2018 Best of Southern MN Scene Winner: Best Director)
