When Dorothy returns to Oz, she and her friends find that the solutions for their problems with their brains, heart, and courage, as suggested by the Wizard in The Wizard of Oz, only solved their problems temporarily. As a result, they go together to get group therapy from Dr. Oz. But mostly, they just sing through their problems to the tunes of some public domain music.
Marilla Wex, actor and storyteller, wants to tell you how she – a Nice Girl from Warwickshire – ended up wedding and bedding Jews until she catches up with the present day, in which she finds herself married to a real Yiddish maven (who was two seats over when I saw the opening night of Lost and Found at Theatre Passe Muraille). After this performance I am fairly certain that I would pay money to hear Marilla Wex discuss a trip to the dry cleaners. Four shows into his year’s Toronto Fringe Festival, I finally found a show I unabashedly loved.
