About This Show

The Wizard of Oz is coming to the Puppet Co. Playhouse! Set at the Kansas State Fair in 1900, live actors tell a story within a story using a wide variety of puppet styles including masks, tabletop puppets, marionettes and moving-mouth puppets. Dorothy, and her little dog, Toto, too, visits the Kansas State Fair, but Dorothy gets lost amongst the crowd. While her parents are being located, a few festival workers care for the little girl and decide to tell her a fascinating story about a girl, a scarecrow, a tin man, and a lion venturing together to see a wizard who will give them just what they are looking for – even if they already have it.
