We’re off to see the wizard, with Chicago-based COMPASS CREATIVE DRAMATICS. When that little Kansas farm house lands in a magical land, you’ll meet a singing & dancing yellow brick road, the Ozians, the monkeys/ Monkees and many more fantastical characters. The classic story comes to life with fun and funny new twists.
