Finding Oz starts "at a high-school reunion 20 years in the future.  After a harmless incident occurs, we are transported back to high school (in the present day) where three characters, a gay male, a loner, and a gender-queer teacher are introduced." The story is told through dialogue and the use of music from the OZ musicals (The Boy from Oz, Wicked, The Wiz, and the Wizard of Oz, as well as from the songbook of Judy Garland), and the use of projections.
