oh I agree with him in that the book and play barely recognize each other, to that end, if you read the book Wizard of Oz then watch the movie - what would be the musical so to speak, they twisted a lot of the storyline to fit what they wanted in the movie from that as well. Not to the extent of Wicked but enough that having grown up watching the movie the story in the book was significantly different in many places so taking a core group of characters then just rebuilding the play/movie to suit the situation seems to be standadard. I totally agree that the play and the book are night and day. I do love the play and plan to go again before it leaves SF
