One of the most famous and beloved stories by children, THE WIZARD OF OZ has managed to seduce entire generations of children over time. Written at the end of the 19th century, more precisely in 1900, the fairy tale has become an immortal story over time, being considered, in fact, the first modern American fairy tale. The adventures of Dorothy – a little girl from Kansas, thrown by a tornado to unknown lands – are famous throughout the world, having known numerous dramatizations and screen adaptations. Although more than 100 years have passed since the launch of this book, children around the world are still fascinated by the wonderful world of Oz.
The cast includes actors: Alina Leonte, Anca Sigmirean, Mirela Lupu, Sebastian Lupu, Andrian Locovei, George Voinese and Emil Sauciuc. The direction belongs to Dan Mirea and the set design to Oana Cernea.
