Follow the yellow brick road as we explore the rich history of The Wizard of Oz! From L. Frank Baum’s beloved books to the iconic 1939 film, we trace the journey of Oz through decades of storytelling. We’ll also delve into stage and screen adaptations, including the smash-hit musical Wicked and its new big-screen reimagining. Plus we got some fandom news, housekeeping, and quite a bit of your feedback.
