The Wonderful Wizard of Oz Play script (6-10 years)
A short play script for The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, based on the original book by L. Frank Baum, for you to adapt for your class or school performance.
School plays are an incredible platform to introduce children to drama, to music, to theatre skills.
The school play enables a group, or class of children, to interact together and to work in a team. There is a role for everyone, whether the child:
is an actor, who is comfortable learning lines and being on the stage
loves singing and dancing
enjoys making props, costumes, or helping with technical skills backstage, in sound or lighting
A positive experience in a school play boosts confidence and helps a child to feel valued. They can be performed at any time of the year and not just at Christmas. It is a good way to end a term and get parents more actively involved. They can be elaborately staged events, or just a simple assembly.
If you have read our book Park Lane School Presents... The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, why not put on your very own school production, using our play script as a starting point.

How many characters are in this script? Are many props needed?
Jan 6, 2023, 16:32Hi,
Many thanks for your question.
There are 26 different characters mentioned in the play, but 9 main characters who have speaking roles. Some require more than one child to take the roles, for example, as munchkins, kalidahs, dancers and various animals i.e. wolves, crows, bees etc.
Regarding props, you could make the props as simple or as complicated as you like.
The main props required are:
- a soft toy dog (for Toto)
- silver shoes
- a picnic basket
- an axe
- a raft and pole to cross the river
- poppies (flowers)
- a throne for the Wizard of Oz
- an assortment of spectacles in a box
- a telescope
- a bucket of water/ blue confetti
- a hot air balloon
Some important back drops would be:
- Dorothy’s house
- A sunny country in a land of make believe (with a yellow brick road)
- A forest with a stone cottage
- A river scene
- A yellow brick road scene
- An Emerald City scene
- A witch’s castle
I hope that gives you more insight into this play script. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any other questions.
Best wishes,
