CHASING RAINBOWS: THE ROAD TO OZ
An awkward little girl with a great big voice. An underdog who didn’t fit the mold. An American icon who almost wasn’t.
CHASING RAINBOWS: THE ROAD TO OZ is the story of how Frances Gumm won the role of Dorothy in the beloved movie musical The Wizard of Oz.
This inspiring story of Judy’s journey from performing in Vaudeville with her family to becoming America’s sweetheart, remains widely unknown.
Inspired by the quote “The history of my life is in my songs,” CHASING RAINBOWS has made a special arrangement with Sony/ATV to bring contemporary life to classic favorites of the popular music of the 1930’s, including "Over the Rainbow", "You Made Me Love You", "Everybody Sing", and many more, in order to tell this emotional and powerful story of the childhood of worlds greatest entertainer.
