    “ Incredibly well written. Randy takes the Wizard of Oz and produces a version inspired by Shakespeare. The cleverness in the writing, establishing stakes early, and the final button that satisfies all audiences. Fantastic show. ”

    “ Why, Oh Why has no-one ever thought before of mixing the Wizard of Oz with Shakespeare? This is genius!
    Poor Mr Baum meets a theatre company who wish to stage The Wizard of Oz, but intend to add their on spin on it (pun noted.) and the way they pitch their idea to him is hilarious!
    And the very last line - BEST LAST LINE OF A PLAY EVER! ”
