Fly over the rainbow with Dorothy as she rides a twister into the merry and troubled land of Oz and learns that no matter how far our journeys take us – there’s no place like home!
The Esperance Theatre Guild brings the story of Dorothy and her friends Scarecrow, Tinman and Lion to life on the Bijou stage as they journey through the magical land of Oz to meet the Wizard and obtain their heart’s desires. Watch out for the Wicked Witch of the West and her wicked minions as you rediscover the real story of Oz in this fantastic musical treat for the whole family!
As a result of the large number of children and youth auditioning for the production, director Danny Ellefsen chose to cast two groups to perform alternating shows to allow everyone to be included.
Actors playing every performance include:
Julian Hockley "Scarecrow",
Derek Clarke "Tinman",
Tim Barr "Lion",
Mary McCulloch "Wicked Witch of the West" and,
Iain Clark as "The Wizard"
Bruce Simmonds, Scott Farmilo, Liam Newton, Judy Barr, Sarah Barr, Sally Nevin, Julie-Anne Clark, Jenny Obourne, Jo Loffler, Tegan Doig, Hayley Revell, Angus Shaw, Mitchell Ware, Nathan Gaughan, Greta Lauritsen.
