The Wizard of Oz

Sunday, 31 August 14:30 - 16:45

Royal Festival Hall, Belvedere Road, Southbank, SE1 8XX

How Much: £50.00 (Advance Tickets)
Dorothy, the Tin Man, the Scarecrow and the Lion are reunited on their quest for the Wizard in this lavish summer musical on the South Bank, directed by Jude Kelly and designed by Michael Vale. Sian Brooke is Dorothy, the part originally played by Judy Garland in the 1939 film.

This classic musical about a girl lost far, far from home
has been eclipsed in London's theatreland for the past few years by Wicked!. This is a good chance to remind a new generation of the beauty and excitement of the original, in a musical version which does justice to the iconic movie.

A spectacular production in the newly revamped Festival Hall and a host of classic songs including 'Somewhere Over the Rainbow' make this an enticing, slightly camp choice for the summer season.
