ABOUT ABOUT

Join us at the Paxton Theatre as we bring L. Frank Baum's children's classic to life!

The Wizard of Oz: Youth Edition is a one-hour adaptation of The Wizard of Oz, specially tailored for young actors.

The MGM film The Wizard of Oz, based on L. Frank Baum's 1900 novel, premiered Graumoan's Chinese Theatre in Hollywood on August 15, 1939. The Royal Shakespeare Company presented a live stage adaptation of the film at the Barbican Centre in London in 1987. In 2011, this one-hour adaptation of the RSC version was designed in conjunction with iTheatrics.

The summer children's theatre production is directed by Jeff, Jenna, & Emma Horick.
