The Wizard of Poz: Defying Bigotry

Adult panto. It’s the 1980’s in Ashby De La Zouch. Kevin is transported by tornado in place of his friend, Dorothy (who got COVID and had to cancel). There he meets the wrath of The Wicked Witch of West Acton (Ealing-Adjacent), whose only wish is to own her sister’s comfy High-Top trainers – oh, and to destroy any living being having an active sex life. Can Kevin save the sex lives of his friends from doom? Can he protect the red High-Top trainers from the witch? Is there anywhere you can park your broom in West Acton – and is that really the price of butter in the 80’s? Aided by Grrrlinda the Good, The Tin Scarecrow (cost of living crisis, we’ve all had to make sacrifices), and a Lion who is obsessed with Greggs the baker, Kevin embarks upon a quest to visit The Wizard of Poz and to discover finally whether that brick road is more ‘Sunflower’ or ‘Babouche’. The Wizard of Poz promises musical numbers from The Wiz, Wicked and the beloved Judy Garland movie, performed by a fabulous line-up of top cabaret and theatre performers.

This performance takes place at Two Brewers, 114 Clapham High Street, London SW4 7UJ
