Fifty-nine--- Kansas Dorothy: Oh, but Aunt Em, she hit him--- Uncle Henry: Don t bother us now honey. Aunt Em: Sixty. Dorothy, we re very busy. Uncle Henry: I have to finishing sweeping the barn and then we have to move these chicks. Aunt Em: There is a lot to do, so why don t you quit worrying about Toto and give us a hand. (K. Dorothy Runs over to Uncle Henry) Kansas Dorothy: Uncle Henry. Can t you do something? Uncle Henry: I m doing something right now honey. So just keep out of our hair. (He exits) Aunt Em: Now Dorothy, you just help us out today and find yourself a place where you won t get into any trouble. (She exits) (K. Dorothy moves Down Center Stage.) Kansas Dorothy: Some place where there isn t any trouble I wonder if there is such a place, Toto? There must be. Not a place you can get to by a boat or a train. It s far, far away behind the moon beyond the rain. Somewhere over the rainbow!. Dorothy exits.

2 SCENE 2 Uncle Henry: (Runs onstage yelling) Hurry up and get them horses loose! It s a twister and it s heading straight for us! Aunt Em: (enters ) Dorothy! Dorothy! Uncle Henry: You ain t found her yet? Aunt Em: She s somewhere out in the storm! Dorothy! Dorothy! Uncle Henry: Come on, get in the storm cellar. Aunt Em: We can t leave her out here, Henry. Uncle Henry: There s nothing we can do, Em. (Both Uncle Henry and Aunt Em exit) (Dorothy enters) Dorothy: Auntie Em! Auntie Em! Where is everybody? What happened? Lights go down slightly. Play Transformation Music / Tornado SFX (At this point Kansas Dorothy is spinning in place. From Stage Right out comes ALL OZ characters and form a tornado circle around Kansas Dorothy. Oz Dorothy is in the line and switches spots with Kansas Dorothy, who gives Toto to Oz Dorothy. Then ALL OZ characters and Kansas Dorothy exit in a line. Oz Dorothy falls to the ground.) SCENE 3 Lights are fully up. Oz Dorothy: Toto I have a feeling we re not in Kansas anymore. We must be over the rainbow! (OZ Dorothy looks around) 2 Dorothy: (points offstage) Toto, look, our house made it through the tornado too! (Glinda enters and sneaks up on Dorothy) Glinda: Are you a good witch, or a bad witch? Dorothy: (startled) Who, me? I m I m not a witch at all. I m Dorothy Gale, from Kansas. Glinda: Oh! Well, is that the witch? (she points at Toto) Dorothy: Who, Toto? Toto s my dog. (Glinda guides Dorothy to Center Stage.) Glinda: Well, I m a little confused. The Munchkins called me because a new witch has just dropped a house on the Wicked Witch of the East. And so, what the Munchkins want to know is, are you a good witch or a bad witch? Dorothy: But I ve already told you, I m not a witch at all. Witches are old and ugly. (Munchkins laugh from behind platform.) Dorothy: What was that? Glinda: The Munchkins. They re laughing because I am a witch. I m Glinda, the Witch of the North. Dorothy: You are! I beg your pardon! But I ve never heard of a beautiful witch before. Glinda: Only bad witches are ugly. (Munckins laugh again). Glinda: The Munchkins are happy because you have freed them from the Wicked Witch of the East.

3 Dorothy: Oh, what are Munchkins? Glinda: The little people who live in this land. This is Munchkin Land. It s all right you may all come out and thank her. (Munchkins come out from behind platform singing the following as they walk over to Glinda and Dorothy) ALL MUNCHKINS: (singing) Ding Dong! The Witch is dead. Which old Witch? The Wicked Witch! Ding Dong! The Wicked Witch is dead! Wake up you sleepy heads, rub your eyes, get out of bed. Ding Dong the Wicked Witch is dead! Mayor steps forward toward Dorothy. Mayor: As Mayor of the Munchkin City, I welcome you to the Land of Oz. Mopsi (Munchkin 1): But we have to make sure that the witch is dead. Ojo (Munchkin 2): Which, witch? Kiki (Munchkin 3): The Wicked Witch! Mopsi (Munchkin 1): And here are her ruby slippers! Munchkins help put ruby slippers on Dorothy s feet. Mayor: This is a day of independence! (All Munchkins cheer and dance around Dorothy. In the midst of rejoicing there is a loud explosion, the Munchkins huddle together around Dorothy in fear. Glinda stands in the huddle not scared at all. the Wicked Witch appears on a broom and circles around the Munchkins and Dorothy. They all huddle even closer together. The munchkins crouch around Dorothy s feet.) 3 Mopsi (Munchkin 1): The witch! Mayor: Quick, run! Dorothy: I thought you said she was dead. (Wicked Witch stops spinning around the huddle and stops on on side of the huddle, the opposite side of Glinda.) Glinda: That was her sister the Wicked Witch of the East. This is the Wicked Witch of the West. And she s worse than the other one was. West Witch: Where s my sister? Glinda: She s under that house (she points to offstage ). West Witch: Alright, who turned her into a house? Was it you Glinda? (West Witch crosses over to Glinda.) Glinda: Not the house. Under the house. West Witch: Under the house? Dorothy: (still in a huddle) It s my fault. I m so sorry. My house dropped on her. West Witch: You dropped your house on my sister? How could anyone be so mean? Ojo (Munchkin 2): She didn t mean to. Witch: Quiet you! Wait, the ruby slippers. Give them back to me or I ll--- Glinda: It s too late. Dorothy already slipped them on her feet. West Witch: Give me back those slippers. I m the only one that knows how to use them. Give them back! Give them back!

4 (The Munchkins and Dorothy crouch and huddle) Glinda: (turn toward Dorothy) Keep tight inside of them. Their magic must be very powerful or she wouldn t want them so badly. West Witch: You stay out of this, Glinda, or I ll fix you as well. Glinda: Oh, fiddle-faddle! You have no power while I m here. Be gone, before somebody drops a house on you, too! West Witch: Very well. But I ll get those slippers. I ll get you, my pretty and your little dog, too! (Gets on her broom and makes a big loop around the stage and exits) Glinda: It s all right. You can get up. She s gone. (Munchkins and Dorothy get up.) Kiki (Munchkin 3): I m glad she s gone. Mayor: She is the wicky-est witch of them all! Mopsi (Munchkin 1): Did you see her fly around on that broomstick? Ojo (Munchkin 2): I couldn t believe it! Glinda: You must find your way back home now Dorothy Dorothy: But which is the way back to Kansas? I can t go the way I came. Glinda: No, that s true. You ll have to go see the Wizard of Oz. Dorothy: The Wizard of Oz? Is he good, or is he wicked? Glinda: Oh, he s good. Mayor: He lives in Emerald City. Glinda: Did you bring your broom. Dorothy: No I m afraid I didn t. Glinda: Well, then, You ll have to walk. And remember, never take those ruby slippers off of your feet. Dorothy: But---how do I start for the Emerald City? Glinda: Just follow the Yellow Brick Road. (she exits ) ALL Munchkins: (waving toward Glinda) Goodbye, Glinda! Goodbye! (Munchkins line up. Dorothy at end of the line. Munchkins hold out hand in direction of yellow brick road when they say their line.) Mopsi (Munchkin 1): Just follow the Yellow Brick Road. Ojo (Munchkin 2): Follow the Yellow Brick Road. Kiki (Munchkin 3): Follow the Yellow Brick Road. Dorothy: Follow the Yellow Brick Road. ALL Munchkins: (sing) You re off to see the Wizard, the wonderful Wizard of Oz. Goodbye Dorothy! Goodbye! Munchkins exit Dorothy exits Scarecrow enters and stands on a stage box SCENE 4 Dorothy walks in Dorothy: (Facing the audience, away from Scarecrow) Well now, which way do we go? 4

5 Scarecrow: (Points toward SL) Pardon me. That way is a very nice way. (Freezes in that position as Dorothy turns.) (Dorothy turns back toward audience.) Scarecrow: (points in different direction and freeze) It s nice down that way too. Dorothy: (Looks at Scarecrow) That s funny. Wasn t he pointing the other way? Scarecrow: Of course, people do go both ways! (he crosses his arms and points in both directions) Dorothy: Why, you did say something, didn t you? Scarecrow: I did. Or maybe I didn t. I haven t got a brain, only straw. So I don t know. Dorothy: Well, how can you talk if you haven t got a brain? Scarecrow: I don t know. But some people without brains do an awful lot of talking, don t they? Dorothy: Yes, I guess you re right. Scarecrow: (Jumping off box, walking DS) But.. I can t even scare a crow. Oh, if I only had a brain I could think up a way to scare those crows. Dorothy: Maybe you could come with me and ask the Wizard for a brain. Scarecrow: Wow, that is a really good idea. You are very smart. Hurrah, I m going to get a brain! Dorothy: To Oz! Scarecrow: To Oz! Dorothy and Scarecrow: (both link arms and sing) We re off to see the Wizard, the wonderful Wizard of Oz! (Both exit) Tin Man comes in and freezes on top of stage box) SCENE 5 (Dorothy and Scarecrow enter. They stop and see Tin Man) Dorothy: Look over there Scarecrow it s a man made of tin! Scarecrow: How did you ever get like this? Tin Man: The Wicked Witch of the West put a spell on me. Dorothy: That s terrible. Tin Man: The worst part is, she didn t put a heart in. Dorothy & Scarecrow: No heart? Tin Man: No heart. (he cries) Dorothy: Oh, please don t cry Tin Man. You ll rust. Scarecrow: Why don t you come with us to the Emerald City and ask the Wizard of Oz for a heart. Tin Man: Suppose the Wizard wouldn t give me one when we got there? Dorothy: Oh, but he will. We ve gone a long way. Tin Man: Then lets be on our way! Dorothy: To Oz! Scarecrow: To Oz! 5 Tin Man: To Oz!

(The Lion pops out from behind the box and jumps up on platform and gives a loud roar) Lion: ROARRRRR! Scarecrow: Look! (Scarecrow and Tin Man crouch in fear) Lion: Hah! Put em up! Put em up! Which one of you first? I ll fight you both together if you want. (goes toward Scarecrow) I ll fight ya with one paw tied behind my back! (Goes toward Tin Man) I ll fight ya standin on one foot! I ll fight ya with my eyes closed! (Dorothy goes to Lion and hits him on the paw) Dorothy: Oh, shame on you! Lion: (whining/crying) What did you do that for? I didn t bite him. Dorothy: No, but you tried to. Lion: Well, you didn t have to go and hit me, did you? Is my nose bleedin? (Tin Man and Scarecrow stand up) Tim Man: You re just a big coward. Lion: You re right, I am a coward. I even scare myself. Scarecrow: Don t you think the Wizard could help him, too? Dorothy: Maybe. Tin Man: Do you want to come with us to see the Wizard? Dorothy: He could give you some courage. Lion: At least I ll be safe if I come with you. Dorothy: Well then, to Oz!
