We are delighted to present The Workshop’s Performance Academy production of Wizard of Oz!
Cyclones, munchkins, witches and wizards, a yellow brick road and an emerald city: welcome to Oz, where anything can happen and a huge amount does, most of it involving a little girl called Dorothy, her dear dog Toto, her three unforgettable companions: the Scarecrow, the Tinman and the Lion – and one very wicked Witch.
Based on the classic novel by L. Frank Baum. A Musical Adaption by Tom Kirkham.
It has been an amazing year working towards this show and we are so proud of all the young people involved. For most of these young people, this production will be their first. Some joined us through our foundations programme; having been referred to us via our referral network. Foundations programme aims to give young people the personal and practical skills to then progress onto our Big Breaks scheme, which entitles them to a year’s place on our class programme where they have taken part in this production.
