THE INSPIRATION FOR THE CLASIC FILM
“Follow the yellow brick road!”
Since it first appeared in 1900, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz has brought joy to generations. In it, a girl’s dream world comes to life as the cyclone lifts Dorothy from Kansas, depositing her in the enchanted land of the Munchkins. There she meets the famous Oz characters: the Scarecrow, the Tin Woodsman, the Cowardly Lion, and the Wicked Witch of the West. Her adventures along the Yellow Brick Road to the Emerald City and the Wizard himself evoke the rich, universal appeal of a classic fairy tale.
