The worlds of Oz and Wonderland collide in this fantastically fun romp, cleverly and carefully adapted from the works of L. Frank Baum and Lewis Carroll. Dorothy Gale has made her way to the end of the Yellow Brick Road, and the wonderful Wizard of Oz is just about to help her get back home to Kansas. But before she can hop into the wizard's balloon, another whirlwind appears over the Emerald City, sweeping Dorothy, Toto, Scarecrow, Tin Man and Lion away to Wonderland.
Equipped with their new assets - brains, heart and courage - Dorothy's friends try to help her find her way home, meeting many other interesting characters along the way, including Alice, the White Rabbit, Mad Hatter, March Hare, the Cheshire Cat and many more. They also must face a dangerous new foe - the Queen of Hearts. Dorothy and Alice team up to defeat the queen at croquet, but will that be enough to return Wonderland to normal? And how will they ever get back home to Kansas and to London?
Director Tabitha Yarnall and the talented cast of "Dorothy in Wonderland" are excited to bring a combination of two classic tales to life on the children's theatre stage. Whether team Oz or Wonderland, there is a character for everyone to enjoy. For more information, go to www.secondstreetplayers.com.
