A stunning stage production. Well worth going to see. The Lion, Scarecrow, Tinman and The Wicked Witch were brilliant. Whoever designed the stage deserves a medal. More

My husband and i took our children age 8 & 6 to see the show. It was fantastic & our children LOVED it. We book the day before & i was very sad to see so many empty seats in the theatre. Dont really understand why as the show is brilliant. Russel Grant was a great Wizard :) More

Seeing The Wizard of Oz brought back many childhood memories of the film. The show has not lost the magic of the film and Sophie, who played Dorothy, stole my heart.
