Tallo: A New Musical
Storyline.
“Tallo” is set in FairLand, an island on the outskirts of the land of Oz.
The musical tells the story of a university student called Tallo. He befriends the new student at the university Liza, who’s true hidden name is Princess Lizella of FairLand.
Although the princess believes herself to be safe within the walls of the school, it isn’t long before everyone learns Liza’s true identity.
A new teacher at the school Dandrik who is the leader of a secret “Sorcerer and Sorceress Cult” plots to capture the princess. With the princess, Dandrik plans to remove her powers and inject them into him. With the princess’s powers in his system, Dandrik will then be strong enough to overthrow the Queen of FairLand and The Wizard Of Oz to rule both kingdoms.
Liza doesn’t know that she has powers and finds out for the first time when she causes a student’s voice to change by accident.
The headmistress of the university Miss Singra a.k.a The Wicked Witch Of The South and a member of the “Sorcerer and Sorceress Cult” along with Dandrik’s two henchmen (Cult members) Flint and Squealer, assist the villain in the capture of the princess.
Unfortunately for Tallo, when he comes face to face with Dandrik in an attempt to save the princess from being taken away, Dandrik smites Tallo with an evil curse. The powerful curse transforms Tallo into a winged monkey.
With the help of rich kid Lord Bartley Pompus, Bartley’s girlfriend Shenee, Bartley’s sister Arwen and student Bryony Wintercrest (Bartley’s other love interest), Tallo sets off with his group on a brave quest to liberate the princess, put an end to Dandrik and his cult and restore peace to both kingdoms.
Although Tallo and Princess Lizella are destined to be together, Tallo in the end rejects a relationship with her, because he has been offered a home in the Emerald City by The Wizard Of Oz. Tallo is promised by the Wizard to be looked after and hopefully one day, be transformed back into his normal self again.
Tallo promises Liza to remain in contact with her and says goodbye to the princess before leaving for Oz. This sets up the stories Wicked and The Wizard of Oz!!!
