Chantelle Nolan, St Helens Theatre Royal manager, said: "We are back with our first show of the year and a family show that has always proved popular in St Helens. The Wizard of Oz is a much-loved classic story which continues to enchant each new generation in turn. We've got a fantastic cast, fabulous costumes and sets and a great story to tell. It's going to be a wonderfully magical half-term treat."

Tickets are priced from £12. A relaxed performance will be taking place at 10am on Saturday, February 18. Tickets can be purchased in person at the Theatre Royal Box Office, by calling 01744 756000 or via the Theatre Royal website.
