Audiences are following the yellow brick road over the rainbow to see Danielle Hope, winner of BBC TV's Over the Rainbow, play Dorothy at The London Palladium, the capital's home of the family musical.

The production features multiple award-winning performer Michael Crawford as the Wizard and Danielle Hope - winner of the 2010 British television talent competition Over the Rainbow - as Dorothy. Other performers in the cast include Edward Baker-Duly (Tin Man), David Ganly (Cowardly Lion), Paul Keating (Scarecrow), Emily Tierney (Glinda) and Hannah Waddingham (Wicked Witch Of The West).

The Wizard of Oz is Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber's first production together in the West End in over three decades. To create the new musical, Lloyd Webber adapted the 1939 film's screenplay with director Jeremy Sams, and added several new songs to the film's score with Rice. In July 2010, Lloyd Webber told the Daily Mail, "The fact is that The Wizard of Oz has never really worked in the theatre. The film has one or two holes where in the theatre you need a song. For example, there's nothing for either of the two witches to sing. Tim and I are doing quite a specific thing, because we know what's missing."

The production opened in England to excellent reviews and record-breaking business, and promises to inspire a new generation of fans by offering a new perspective on a timeless classic.
