Synopsis:
Boulder Ballet School presents the beloved story, “The Wizard of Oz.” Told through dance, this hour-long production is perfect for the whole family.
There once was a young girl named Dorothy, who lived with her Auntie Em in the rural plains of Kansas. She lived a simple life and spent all of her time with her small dog, Toto. One day, Almira, a nosy neighbor, tries to capture Dorothy’s dog to send it away, claiming Toto is causing too much trouble. During this scuffle, a horrible twister touches down and causes a great disaster. Dorothy and Toto are swept away, and the twister drops them in the mysterious Land of Oz: a vibrant world overflowing with new friends, animals, witches, and a peculiar wizard.
Looking forward to getting home, Dorothy sets off on an adventurous journey back to Kansas. Along the way, she meets a silly scarecrow, a lonely tinman, and a very shy lion. Her new friends guide her along the yellow brick road toward Emerald City, in hopes of finding the Wizard of Oz, who can grant their wishes. Little did Dorothy know, she had the power all along to make her dreams come true!
