OZ – 2013

In summer 2013, audiences encountered an enigmatic magician, an odious fortune teller, and an organ grinder with a mischievous monkey; all members of a curious gypsy-circus crossing a bleak and windswept landscape. A Kansas-sized twister swept them up, coiling and twisting them dizzy, until they were hurtled down to somewhere over the rainbow where a Cirque du Soleil fantasy world awaited! Just outside their door audience members came face-to-face with acrobatic Munchkins and a glittering witch afloat in a bubble. A pair of ruby slippers led them down a Yellow Brick Road fraught with adventure; a ruminating scarecrow with no brain, a spinning tin man with no heart, and a quaking lion with no courage. Arriving at a crossroads where east meets west and north meets south, audience members beware the wrath of a wicked witch, or maybe two! Green glasses were a necessity when gazing upon the dazzling Emerald City; zany gatekeepers, acrobatic crowds, and their outlandish Mayor and Ozma their queen, all-in-green! The great and mysterious Wizard granted wishes only if you accomplished the impossible! And in order to find home again audiences traveled further into darkness, endured aerial attacks from the wicked monkey king and his flying minions, battled gravity-defying castle guards on a rocky castle wall, and confronted the evilest Witch of the West.
