Dorothy an d her dog  Toto travel through a magical world of mystery after an incred ible natural  disaster in her small farm town in Kansas.\nOne dark aftern oon\, Dorothy and Toto were taking a walk\, when they were  spooked by a mean local lady on her bicycle\, Mrs. Gulch. Dorothy and Toto  run in ter ror\, as a storm begins to brew. Mrs. Gulch steals Toto\, and while  tryi ng to get away\, Dorothy falls\, bumps her head\, and is left unconscious\ ,  as a tornado moves onto her farm.\n\nMoments later\, Dorothy is awoken by her friend Toto\, licking her face. She  wakes up and realizes\, she ’s not in Kansas anymore. Glinda\, a good witch\,  flies in to explain. “ She must take the path of the yellow brick road\, to  meet the Wizar d of Oz\,“ if she wishes to return back to Kansas. Unknowing ly\, the to rnado had taken Dorothy’s farmhouse and tossed it on top of the  Wicked Witch of the East.\n\nShe is later greeted by many groups of Munchkins\, of Munchkinland. The  mayor and the rest of the munchkins welcome Dorothy and celebrate the  death of The Wicked Witch. After the celebration\, Do rothy and Toto make\n\ntheir way down the yellow brick road\; they’re of f to see the Wizard\, the  wonderful Wizard of Oz.\n\nAlong the yellow br ick road\, Dorothy and Toto come across a corn field  with a scarecrow ha nging. The scarecrow springs to life and explains to  Dorothy\, he’s mi ssing his brain. Dorothy tells him to follow her to see the  Wizard of Oz \, to get his brain. The Scarecrow follows Dorothy down the  yellow brick road.\n\nThey soon come to a forest\, in the forest is a rusted Tin Man. They add  some oil\, to help him move his arms and legs. He explains that he doesn’t  have a heart. Dorothy and Scarecrow get the Tin Man to fol low them to see  the Wizard and get him a new heart.\n\nA few skips away\ , they come to a scary part of the forest. In the forest\,  they come acr oss a big scary lion. The lion gets spooked by noises coming  from the fo rest\, and confesses\, he doesn’t have any courage. He’s actually  a scared and cowardly lion. They take the lion with them down the yellow  b rick road to find the Wizard.\n\nJust before arriving at Emerald City\, th e Wicked Witch of the West sees\, on  her crystal ball\, that they’re g etting closer. She casts a spell on the Poppy  Flowers and causes Dorothy to sleep. Glinda comes and makes the Pop pies disappear and sends them ba ck on their way.\n\n\nThey finally make it to the Wizard and he sends them to gather the witch’s  broom stick. They go back to get the broom stic k\, but the flying monkeys  come in and take Dorothy and Toto away and at tack the Scarecrow\, Lion\,  and Tin Man.\n\nInside the Witch’s Quarter s\, the witch’s guards march Dorothy and Toto  into the chambers of the Wicked Witch of the West. They try to escape\, but  they’re cornered b y the flying monkeys. The Wicked Witch tries to catch  the scarecrow on f ire with her torch\, but Dorothy throws a bucket of water  on the torch a nd the Witch\, to put out the flame. Immediately\, the Wicked  Witch star ts to melt.\n\n“I’m Melting\, melting....” She screams\, as she disa ppears and the monkeys  and guards begin bowing to Dorothy and give her t he broom stick to take  back to the Wizard.\n\nBack at the Wizard’s Qua rters\, Dorothy and the others enter with the  broom stick. The Wizard de nies them and upsets them all. Toto runs over  to the Wizard’s curtain and pulls it\, revealing that he’s just a normal human  man.\n\nThe Wiz ard\, in a fright\, gives the Tin Man his heart\, the Scarecrow his brain\ ,  and the Lion his courage. Then he offers to fly Dorothy home in his ho t air  balloon\, to get out of the Land of Oz.\n\nThe Wizard of Oz leaves in the balloon and Glinda enters\, dancing around  singing to Dorothy\, letting her know not to worry.\n\nGlinda waves her magic wand and tells Do rothy to click her heels three  times and repeat “there’s no place li ke home.“ Dorothy does this and all of  a sudden\, everything goes blac k.\n\nSeconds later\, she begins to wake up\, as if she were in a deep sle ep. As she  wakes up\, she starts to realize\, she’s accompanied by Tot o\, Auntie Em\, and  the three farmers.\n\nShe explains to them all of th e adventures she had with Toto\, the Tin Man\,  the Scarecrow\, the Cowar dly Lion and the Great and Powerful Wizard of  Oz. They all laugh and tel l her she was knocked on the head during the  storm. She must have been d reaming the whole thing.\n\nShe replies\, “but you were there\, and you\ , and even you.” No one really  knows if it was a dream\, but the land of Oz is definitely a much safer place  now\, without the Wicked old Witc h!\n\n ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://corsicanapalace.com/wp-content/uploads/2 026/04/TRIBUTE-palace-season-website-thumbnails-8.png CATEGORIES:Rental Show END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:57@corsicanapalace.com DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20260619T193000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20260619T193000 DTSTAMP:20260203T191031Z URL:https://corsicanapalace.com/events/lorrie-morgan/ SUMMARY:Lorrie Morgan DESCRIPTION:She is undeniably one of the most eloquently emotive vocalists of modern times.\n\nLorrie Morgan\, the first woman in her genre to begin her career with three consecutive Platinum albums\, recently completed a n ew album with award-winning producer Richard Landis.

She has kicked up her stiletto heels in fun on he r hits "Except for Monday" and "Go Away."

Whether covering a classic or sharing one of her own songs\, Morgan is tr uly a song stylist in the grandest tradition.\n\n  ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://corsicanapalace.com/wp-content/uploads/2 026/02/2025-2026-palace-season-website-thumbnails-3.png CATEGORIES:Rental Show END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:58@corsicanapalace.com DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20260829T193000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20260829T193000 DTSTAMP:20260203T191159Z URL:https://corsicanapalace.com/events/bellamy-brothers/ SUMMARY:The Bellamy Brothers DESCRIPTION:\n\nThe Bellamy Brothers celebrated their 40th anniversary with the release of a two-CD collection\, 40 years\, an ambitious project cont aining 20 of their biggest hits and 20 brand-new songs.
