Dorothy Gale is a young girl who lives on a farm in Kansas with her Aunt Em and Uncle Henry. To escape her mean neighbor, Miss Gulch, who wants to take away her dog Toto, Dorothy runs away. She and Toto meet up with kind Professor Marvel, who convinces her to go back home. A cyclone hits the area, and Dorothy and Toto are locked out of the family's storm cellar. They go into her room in the house, where Dorothy is accidently hit on the head. This begins their journey to the Land of Oz. This production is the Royal Shakespeare’s Company adaptation of the MGM movie classic.

All roles available. There will be five roles of the total available for AEA artists, and one AEA/ASM.

Rehearsal schedules are generally two or three evenings during the week, and a weekend afternoon.
