  1. The Wonderful Wizard of Oz

  2. Scene 1 • The Country of the Munchkins, in the land of Oz.

  3. Dorothy • Toto, this place doesn’t look familiar to me at all. The cyclone must have carried us far away from home! Toto, I believe we are lost. • Witch of the North enters, as several Munchkins run in.

  4. Good Witch of the North • Welcome, most noble sorceress, to the Country of the Munchkins in the Land of Oz.

  5. Dorothy • Why, who are you? • Dorothy jumps up, somewhat frightened

  6. Good Witch of the North • I am the Witch of the North, a friend of these Munchkins, whose country you are now in. We are all very grateful to you for killing the wicked Witch of the East, and desire to serve you in any way possible.

  7. Dorothy • You are very kind. But…but I didn’t kill anyone.

  8. Good Witch of the North • You didn’t, but your house did. You see, your farmhouse was picked up by the cyclone and landed here in Munchkin, right on top of the wicked Witch of the East, killing her and freeing us from her hateful reign. See, there are the Ruby slippers that she wore! She was so old and mean that after she was killed, she just dried up and blew away. Please accept the shoes as a token of our thanks for freeing us from the Witch. It is said that they have magic powers, but I know not what they are.

  9. Dorothy • Dear me, what a strange place. Are you a real witch?

  10. Witch • Yes, indeed, but I am a good witch, and the people love me.

  11. Dorothy • But I thought all witches were wicked.

  12. Good Witch of the North • Oh, no. That is a great mistake. There were only four witches in the Land of Oz, and two of them, those who live in the North and South, are good witches, those in the East and West are wicked witches. Now that the Witch of the East is dead, there is but one wicked witch in all the Land of Oz, the one who lies in the West.

  13. Dorothy • Perhaps you can tell me, Witch of the North, how I can get back to Kansas and Aunt Em. She’ll be dreadfully worried, you know. And my dog Toto always gets upset in a strange place. • Toto barks and the Munchkins laugh

  14. Good Witch of the North • I do not know where Kansas is, Dorothy. But there is one person in Oz who will surely know. All ways of magic are known to him.

  15. Dorothy • Who is he? And where can I find him?

  16. Good Witch of the North • Our mighty wizard, the Wizard of Oz—he will tell you how to get back to Kansas. I myself have never seen him, for he lives in the Emerald City of Oz, a wonderously beautiful city, whose gates are studded with jewels.

  17. Dorothy • Is he a good man?

  18. Good Witch of the North • He is a good wizard. Whether he is a man or not, I do not know.

  19. Dorothy • We will go right away. How can I get there?

  20. Good Witch of the North • Follow the yellow brick road through the Great Forest, and that will lead you to the Emerald City. But wear the ruby slippers, for they will keep you from harm. And now goodbye. We in Munchkin will always be ready to welcome you back. Have a safe journey. Here are a pair of Ruby Slippers, do not take the Ruby slippers off under any circumstance, they will keep you safe from the cruelty of the Wicked Witch of the West. • The witch exits and the Munchkins wave cheerfully as Dorothy and Toto leave.

  21. Dorothy • Come Toto. (puts on slippers) Oh! They fit! Oh, my gracious, Toto, look—a funny stuffed man. Why it’s a scarecrow. But such a mournful-looking face! • Dorothy brushes straw off the scarecrow

  22. Scarecrow • Good day!

  23. Dorothy • Oh, I didn’t know you were alive, Mr. Scarecrow. (Helping him up)I never knew scarecrows could be alive.

  24. Scarecrow • Of course I am alive. But what is that odd little animal? And who are you, and where are you going?

  25. Dorothy • My name is Dorothy. This is Toto, my dog. We live in Kansas, but a cyclone picked up our house and when the wind died down we found ourselves in Oz. The good Witch of the North told us to go to the Emerald City and said that the Wizard of Oz would tell us how to get back to Kansas.

  26. Scarecrow • Where is the Emerald City? And who is the Wizard of Oz?

  27. Dorothy • Why, you don’t know?

  28. Scarecrow • No indeed. You see, I am only stuffed with straw so I have no brains at all.

  29. Dorothy • No brains at all?

  30. Scarecrow • None at all. I don’t mind my legs, arms, and body being stuffed because I can’t get hurt. But with my head stuffed with straw instead of brains, how am I ever to know anything? I am really just a fool. Shaking his head

  31. Dorothy • You are not a fool! But I understand how you feel. If you come with me, I’ll ask the Wizard to do all he can for you. Perhaps he will give you some brains. • Sympathetically

  32. Scarecrow • Oh thank you, Dorothy.

  33. Dorothy • Well, come on then. Let’s be off!

  34. Scene 2 • The Yellow Brick Road, in the Great Forest.

  35. Dorothy • Oh, look! It’s a Tin Woodsman, but he’s only half finished his wood chopping. • Dorothy rushes toward the Tin Man

  36. Scarecrow • So he has, so he has. (studying him) • I’ve never seen anyone like him before. • Tin Man groans

  37. Tin Woodsman • Don’t stand there staring at me. Help me! Do something! You don’t suppose I want to stand here like this, do you?

  38. Dorothy • Amazed • I’ve never heard of such a thing as a live tin woodsman! What shall we do? How can we help you?

  39. Tin Man • Send that straw-stuffed creature to my cottage over there and bring me my can of oil. I was caught in the rain while chopping wood, my joints have rusted. Hurry!

  40. Scarecrow • Oh my, I will hurry and get the oil can!

  41. Tin Man Oh thank you. What’s your name?

  42. Dorothy • My name is Dorothy, and this is my dog Toto. We are from Kansas but got lost in a cyclone. • The Scarecrow comes back with the oil can, he and Dorothy oil the Tin Man, who slowly lowers his arm and stretches

  43. Tin Man • Smiling • That’s much better. You have no idea how tiresome it is to stand there for two days, helpless, waiting for someone to save you.

  44. Scarecrow • Dorothy is a kind little girl. She saved me and now she has saved you. Hooray for Dorothy! • Tin Man starts to dance and falls clumsily, Dorothy and the Scarecrow help him back to his feet • Thank you. I am alright now. Let’s go, Dorothy.

  45. Tin Man • Where are you going?

  46. Dorothy • To see the Wizard of Oz. He’s going to tell me how to get back to Kansas, where I live.

  47. Scarecrow • And he’s going to give me some brains.

  48. Tin Man • Do you suppose he would give me a heart? The tinsmith forgot to give me one when he made me, and I would like to be able to have feelings.

  49. Dorothy • Doubtfully • Well, I don’t know, but if he can give the Scarecrow some brains, he can surely give you a heart. Why don’t you come with us?

  50. Tin Man • I believe I will. • Sound of lion roaring is heard
