Description

Dorothy and her faithful dog Toto find themselves back on a winding road, this time guiding the bewildered Shaggy Man toward the mysterious town of Butterfield. Their light‑hearted banter over which branch to take sets the tone for a journey that blends simple countryside charm with the unmistakable wonder of Oz. As they set off, familiar faces like the earnest Button‑Bright and the radiant Polychrome join the troupe, each adding a splash of color to the adventure.

Together they wander through a queer village, stumble upon a city of beasts, and follow a rainbow‑lit path that promises both delight and danger. Along the way, they confront curious creatures such as the Scoodlers and navigate a treacherous desert, all while the Shaggy Man’s good‑natured clumsiness keeps the group laughing. Listeners will be swept up in the whimsical camaraderie and the promise of new discoveries that lie just beyond the next bend.
