There’s no place like home — and no better place to be this October than the Kauffman Center. The Kansas City Ballet brings its magical production of The Wizard of Oz back to the Muriel Kauffman Theatre from October 16 through 25, 2026.
With choreography by Septime Webre and an original score by Matthew Pierce, the ballet features storylines and visual elements from the beloved MGM motion picture, provided by Warner Bros. Theatre Ventures — a true trip down the yellow brick road, told in dance.
