Short filmTranscript
00:00The wonderful Wizard of Oz summons you to his personal palace in the Emerald City.
00:05Come with me!
00:09The Wizard is somebody who's become an effective figure of fixation and cult for the citizens of Oz.
00:21Folks have come to expect that sort of thing.
00:24And you gotta give the people what they want.
00:29He is very prolific and on fire with inventing the 20th century.
00:34He calls himself a carny and he was involved in show business in some way and storytelling.
00:40I give you the Oz of tomorrow.
00:44He was able to fool people into thinking that he could do something magical.
00:51I think people need direction.
00:52When this thing gets built, everybody's gonna remember that if you just follow the road, it's gonna lead you right to me.
01:02I'm a kind of a magician. You should know that everything I do is phony.
01:07But Elphaba turns out to be a person of extraordinary potential.
01:14And that's a problem.
01:16You have no real power!
01:18Exactly.
01:20That's why I need you.
