Another Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz

Andrew Lloyd Webber has announced today that Sophie Evans (who was runner up to Danielle Hope in Over the Rainbow) will play Dorothy at selected performances of his new production of The Wizard of Oz which is due to open at the London Palladium next February.

Sophie will appear as  Dorothy every Tuesday evening from 8th March, and throughout the weeks of 2nd May, 5th September and 12th September when Danielle is away on holiday.

Sir Andrew is helping Sophie to continue her training by providing the funds for a year-long musical theatre course at the Arts Educational School.
