El Otro Oz
THE NEW BILINGUAL MUSICAL FOR KIDS RETURNS TO THE KIRK DOUGLAS THEATRE!
This bilingual musical and The New York Times Critic’s Pick by Mando Alvarado, Tommy Newman, and Jaime Lozano, returns in a reimagined production! Click your heels together tres veces and take a transformative journey with this salsa, merengue, and Mexican folk-infused musical inspired by The Wizard of Oz. As her fifteenth birthday approaches, Dora, a contemporary Latiné teenager, struggles with her family’s ideas about tradition and dreads her impending quinceañera! But, when Dora gets swept away to a strange new land, she learns how to celebrate her unique rhythm and embrace her cultural identity.
Presented through special arrangement with TheaterWorksUSA.
