The Wizard of Oz — Musical for Children

Dorothy, the yellow brick road and a full musical staging at the East Moat Theatre. 70 minutes, in Greek, €12.

The Thessaloniki Children's Stage brings its musical Wizard of Oz to the East Moat Theatre for one night, and it is the kind of show that survives a language barrier: songs, choreography by Ntinos Fragkoulis, and a scarecrow, tin man and lion you can follow by sight alone. Paschalis Arampatzis directs, with music and lyrics by Aisonas. It runs 70 minutes straight through, which is about the right length for the under-tens. Performed in Greek. Tickets are €12 through more.com, and the moat theatre is a short walk from the old town, so it pairs easily with dinner afterwards.
