The Magic of Wild Rice’s The Wizard of Oz
The Wizard of Oz is a story we all know and love. In this version, the adventure is set to be bigger, bolder, and more local than ever before. When Dorothy is swept away not to Kansas, but from Yishun to the magical Land of Oz, the story takes a fresh and hilarious twist. With a Hokkien-speaking Scarecrow, a larger-than-life Tin Man, and a Lion who loves nothing more than crochet, this adaptation brings both heart and humour to the stage. Directed by the acclaimed Ivan Heng, with a script by Alfian Sa’at and music by Elaine Chan, the show promises to be a treat for theatre-goers.
The standout cast includes well-known Singaporean talents such as Rebecca Ashley Dass, Benjamin Chow, Dwayne Lau, Siti Khalijah Zainal, Karen Tan, and Timothy Wan.
