Was looking for something to listen to while doing cardio, and came across this. While I think he didn't add anything amazing to the show, and the girl playing Dorthy is a horrendous actress and not a great singer, I've been Googling videos/pictures and I'm so impressed with the design. It looks like a real spectacle. Any other pics or behind-the-scene videos? I'm so curious how the set works for the whole show and how things move on and off and whatnot. Also really love the Palladium's marquee. So understated and pretty.

The West End version was drastically different in design from the recent North American tour.
On the official Youtube channel there are many behind the scenes videos from the West End version.

It's nice to see a big, huge spectacle like that. Kind of wish it had come over. But it looks costly. Yeah, I'm curious about the most recent non-union tour too.

For a non-equity tour it was pretty good overall. Sets were fully automated, the Oz set was just drops, and there was some cheese projections, but overall it was a good show.

I couldn't get past the new songs. I didn't like any of them.

I saw the North American Tour... I do not remember much other than being unimpressed. Also, the set the Kansas far was more detailed and elaborate than any of the sets for the land of of Oz.
