The Perils of Modern Education is a hilarious romp through the chaos of school life - standardized theatre tests, caffeine withdrawal, even Shakespeare stressing over his college essay! Gender-flexible, easy to stage, and full of laughs.

Production Tips for
The Wonderful Wizard of Oz

adapted by Laramie Dean from L. Frank Baum

There is no place like home.

Dorothy and Toto get swirled into a cyclone and find themselves dropped in the land of Oz – a land where scarecrows talk, lions are cowardly, and witches are very real.

In this fantastic adaptation of the original L. Frank Baum novel (there are no singing munchkins here) every fantasy element is easily and practically staged with just 10 cubes. You too can bring winged monkeys to life!

Gender flexible. Excellent ensemble opportunities. Budget friendly.

Tips from past Producers

This was a HUGE cast if you choose to give each character it's own person. I know it was written for the narrators to do all the small parts but we expanded it to include many of the smaller parts for our students new to theater and it worked!
