The Muppets’ Wizard of Oz

Dorothy Gale dreams of stardom and sees a chance when the Muppets are seeking a backup singer, so she hands them a hopeful demo CD. She imagines performing on a big stage while still living in a Kansas trailer park with Aunt Em and Uncle Henry. This moment sets her on a path toward a world beyond her small town.

A violent tornado tears across the prairie, separating Dorothy from her family while Aunt Em and Uncle Henry seek safety. The storm carries her and Toto to a dazzling, perilous world filled with color and uncertainty. They crash into the unfamiliar Land of Oz, beginning their extraordinary journey.

Dorothy lands in Munchkinland and learns that the Wizard might grant her wish. She receives a pair of shimmering silver slippers, and the Wicked Witch of the East is toppled when Dorothy’s trailer crushes her, unleashing a flood of color and hope. The quest for a path home and stardom begins in earnest.

Dorothy befriends a Scarecrow, a Tin Thing, and a Cowardly Lion who all seek something from the Wizard. They set off along the Yellow Brick Road toward the Emerald City, forming a mismatched but loyal fellowship. Together they face tests and strange encounters that test their growing bond.

The Wizard tasks the group with retrieving the Wicked Witch of the West’s magic eye, a tool she uses to glimpse her wishes in Oz. Their mission becomes urgent as the journey grows riskier, pushing them to press onward despite looming peril. The eye becomes a symbol of power and home in their quest.

The Witch’s Flying Monkeys sweep in to thwart the travelers, scattering the group and capturing Dorothy and the Lion. The Scarecrow and Tin Thing are dismantled in the chaos, leaving the remaining travelers to regroup and rethink their dangerous mission. The showdown marks a turning point in their journey.

Toto summons the Munchkins to defend Dorothy, and the tiny army helps create a diversion to buy time. The defense buys Dorothy a window to escape, cementing the bond between Dorothy and her new friends. This moment shows that even the smallest ally can change the course of a quest.

Dorothy uses a splash of water to melt the Wicked Witch of the West, a moment that exposes the magic eye bobbing in a tub nearby. With the Eye in hand, Dorothy gains leverage and a renewed sense of control over their fate. The group now has a powerful artifact on the road to home.

With the eye secured, the group returns to the Emerald City to press their case before the Wizard. They discover that the grand administrator is actually a man operating the show from a Hollywood stage, a reality that challenges everything they believed about magic. The revelation forces them to rethink what they truly seek.

The Wizard fulfills the wishes of the Scarecrow, Tin Thing, and Lion, offering brains, a heart, and courage in symbolic form. The moment emphasizes that true power lies in inner qualities rather than external tricks. Dorothy and her friends begin to see that their strengths come from within.

Dorothy realizes that personal fame isn’t her deepest longing and that she values family and home above all. Glinda reminds her that the silver slippers can take her anywhere she pleases, guiding her toward a choice that aligns with her true heart. The journey shifts from pursuit of stardom to the power of home.

Dorothy uses the silver slippers to return to Kansas, where she reunites with Aunt Em. Back home, she discovers a new twist: she’s been chosen to sing with the Muppets, blending her love of music with the warmth of family. The ending ties together the dream of fame with the comfort and belonging of home.
