Wizard of Oz teachers’ resource pack

The Wizard of Oz stage shows are based on the 1900 novel ‘The Wonderful Wizard of Oz’ by L. Frank Baum. Although usually produced as a musical, The Wizard of Oz was staged as a pantomine at Hall for Cornwall between the 12th of December 2003 and the 11th of January 2004. Teachers’ resource packs were developed for these performances by the education officer and served the purpose of engaging younger audiences in the arts.
