Who hasn't wanted to journey down the yellow brick
road of theWizard of OZ. In 2003 the Olde World
Puppet Theatre did just that, with lifesize body puppets
set to Meco's disco rock opera score. And we have
plans to visit OZ once again. There are new plans afoot
to revisit this unique story for the stage, setting the
entire production way down in New Orleans during
Mardi Gras. New music, new puppets and an entirely
new approach are being planned.
