Return to Oz is an unofficial Disney film sequel to the much-loved Wizard of Oz, and a more accurate adaptation of the Frank L. Baum books. In contrast to the usually opulent Emerald City, Return to Oz depicts a foray into a ruined empire, highlighted by quirky, discordant characters and an unsettling storyline. Contemporary Dance Theatre and DanceWorks, the performing companies of Contemporary School of Dance, have combined their artistic talents to bring you a glimpse of the subject matter embodied by this cult classic—the ability of dreams to twist the familiar and expose our subconscious fears, precarious adventures that reveal the most obscure aspects of our personalities.
