Oz Fest


Lea Michele (Glee) leads a star studded voice cast as Dorothy and will sing several songs in the animated 3-D musical pic Dorothy of Oz says Variety.

Randi Barnes, Adam Balsam and Barry Glasser wrote the script based on the same book by Roger S. Baum, great-grandson of the original "The Wizard of Oz" author L. Frank Baum. The story sees Dorithy Gale "returning to a tornado-devastated Kansas and then being transported back to Oz to help her friends."

Jim Belushi as the Lion, Dan Aykroyd as the Scarecrow, Kelsey Grammer as the Tin Man, Oliver Platt as Wiser the Owl, Megan Hilty as the China Princess, Hugh Dancy as as Marshall Mallow and Martin Short as Dorothy's arch-nemesis Jester also lend their voices to the pic

Dan St. Pierre is directing.

Bryan Adams and Jim Vallance are writing the first songs and lyrics for the film.

Bonne Radford is producing the film.
