Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe

With a box office flop and almost no lasting buzz, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
If you count yourself among people who'll be humming afterwards and anyone who likes a world with its own rules, this one's for you. The music is woven into the story, not just laid on top. Liked Mary Poppins or Descendants 2? This is a good next one.
The mood
Easygoing.
The pace
Well paced, at 1 hr 10 min. Done before bedtime.
What might put you off
Skip it if you like your stories firmly grounded in the real world.

In this minimalist stage version of the MGM film, Dorotea is swept to Oz by an offstage tornado, greeted by Glinda and flowery Munchkins, not played by actors. Glinda looks suspiciously like Mother Ema (not Aunt). A Wicked Witch appears with blacked out teeth who looks like Dona Brujilda, who has been trying to get rid of Dorotea's dog.
