Following its successful run at the Palladium last summer, The Wizard of Oz is back in the West End for just 38 shows.
When a tornado touches down in the dusty prairie land of Kansas, Dorothy is magically transported to the world of Oz where she meets a Scarecrow, Tin Man and Cowardly Lion.

But will he be able to send Dorothy home? And what about the two battling witches, Glinda and Elphaba?
