The show was a huge success during its run at St Helens Theatre Royal last October playing to a packed-out auditorium, and is guaranteed to delight audiences of Stockport this August.
Producers are excited to confirm former Eastenders' actress Cheryl Fergison will once again return to play The Wicked Witch of the West and singing sensation Charlotte Gallagher returns to the role of Dorothy.
Cheryl, who playEd Heather Trott in the soap opera for many years, is a multi-talented performer who has starred in many stage and film productions and is a wonderful singer and musician.
She is certainly no stranger to pantomime, having also appeared in Cinderella, Jack & The Beanstalk and Beauty and the Beast to name but a few.
The Wizard of Oz is a firm family favourite which tells the story of young Dorothy Gale and her dog Toto as they embark on a wondrous adventure over the rainbow in the magical land of Oz.
Regal Entertainments' version of this classic family show includes a hilariously funny script, dazzling costumes and sets, plus a wealth of brilliant songs and show-stopping choreography.
Be sure to join Dorothy, Toto and all their new friends Scarecrow, Tin Man and Lion as they journey down the Yellow Brick Road to The Emerald City in search of the Wizard of Oz who can make all their dreams come true.
Wizard of Oz Producer, Chantelle Nolan said: "We cannot wait to bring this production to the Stockport Plaza. We had an amazing time during the run of the show in St Helens last year, audiences seemed to go mad for it with many families making return visits. Cheryl is absolutely fantastic and we are delighted to be working with her again and we know you will love her - when you're not booing her that is...!"
Stockport Plaza Manager, Ted Doan added: "We are delighted to welcome Cheryl Fergision back to The Plaza in what promises to be one of the absolute highlights of our summer of fun at The Plaza, with an affordable family show for everyone to enjoy!"
The Wizard of Oz runs from Monday 7 - Saturday 12 August. Book early to avoid disappointment. Full cast to be confirmed soon.
