What if the story you thought you knew about Oz was only part of the truth?
The Truth About Oz is a dramatic retelling of the untold stories behind the people of Oz.
Before the Wicked Witch became a legend, there were friendships, choices, misunderstandings, dreams, and secrets that shaped the kingdom.
At the heart of the story is Elphara, a young woman whose unusual appearance causes others to judge and reject her, and Alinda, a charming and ambitious young woman who seems to have everything—but must discover what truly matters. Though very different, their lives become unexpectedly connected.
Along the way, we meet Jenna, a young girl whose questions and experiences help reveal the stories behind Oz, and Auntie Rose, a caring figure who guides Jenna and shares the history of the Wicked Witch.
Do we really know the truth about the people we call good or wicked?
