After being swept by a tornado from Kansas to a new land, Dorothy (Jayla Edwards) meets new friends Scarecrow (Jacob Kelly), Tin Man (Nathan Desrochers) and Lion (Rayanna Cottman).

Waiting for Dorothy at home are Hunk (Jacob Kelly), Hickory (Nathan Desrochers) and Zeke (Rayanna Cottman); Aunt Em (Jordan Hewlett) and Aunt Henny (Sophia Ferguson); and Miss Gulch (Lianna Gissentaner), from whom Dorothy was escaping when she was caught up in the tornado.
