The Wizard of Oz - Relaxed Performance

Get ready to be spellbound by this mesmerising tale of courage, friendship, and the power of believing in yourself.

L. Frank Baum’s classic novel comes to life in The Wizard of Oz. This faithful adaptation by the Royal Shakespeare Company features all the most beloved songs and moments from the 1939 classic film, brought to life onstage.

Young Dorothy Gale is swept away by a tornado from her Kansas farm to the magical land of Oz. There, she encounters a host of whimsical characters: good witches, bad witches, animals that talk, scarecrows that walk, and things magical to behold. To find her way home, she must journey along the Yellow Brick Road to see the mysterious and all-powerful Wizard in the Emerald City. Along the way, she makes new friends, but must also brave many dangers, including the Wicked Witch of the West, who will stop at nothing to get her hands on Dorothy’s magical ruby slippers.

To make it home safely, Dorothy must learn an important lesson: there really is no place like home.


    relaxed performance

    In a Relaxed Performance, we offer a safe, accessible, and enjoyable environment for everybody to enjoy and experience shows and events, no matter their needs or age, without fear of judgment.

    In this relaxed performance:

    • We'll reduce the intensity of sound, lighting and special effects used in the show.
    • A 'chillout/breakout space' is available to all audience members who need a break from the show. You can leave and return to this area at any time. This space will cater for all sensory needs, with an area also set up for younger children.
    • The theatre house lights will remain on (and dimmed), with the auditorium doors open throughout the show.
    • There is a relaxed attitude to noise and movement from the audience.
    • Actors will introduce themselves on stage to the audience before the show.

    A visual Social Story PDF will be made available before the show, with a printed version available on the day.
