Dorothy of Oz (Fantasy, Children's Book, Classic, Fairy Tale, Adaptation)
  
PLOT: Dorothy Gale (Lea Michele) finds that her beloved Kansas is just a shadow of its former glory after the tornado hit. Soon she travels back to Oz where she is startled by the state of the land, the disappearance of her yellow brick road companions and the replacement of The Wizard. Since his departure The Jester (Martin Short) has taken over and no one is happy about it. Dorothy meets a new group of friends including a marshmallow man (Hugh Dancy), a tugboat (Patrick Stewart) and a china doll princess (Megan Hilty) who are determined to make things right again.
