The musical is being organised by the Bradford Council&#8217;s Music and Arts Department, thanks to the funding given to the department by the Arts Council. Work on the production will begin later in the month, at a free workshop. It will have secondary school pupils involved and help them develop their interest in song-writing, performance and musical theatre. Theatre professionals like Amanda Glover (artistic director of Youth Music Theatre, Scotland) will be working with them, to bring alive the project.<br \/>\nThe idea was sparked off by Bradford Council&#8217;s Tony Johnson, Head of Music and Arts, who said this would be an unique opportunity to young people involved to deliver this play, Bradford&#8217;s first-ever musical. The musical play will borrow the narrative structure of the famous Wizard of Oz, with the central character of the play encountering Bradford&#8217;s various cultures and communities.<br \/>\nThe musical performance is planned to be held on 10th October (Saturday) at a venue yet to be decided. It would be part of Echoes of Oz, a festival that will be going on in the same week.
