The Original 1905 Production

The 1905 musical 'The Woggle Bug' is based on the 1904 novel The Marvelous Land of Oz by L. Frank Baum. With book and lyrics by the L. Frank Baum himself and music by Frederic Chapin. The first production opened in Chicago at the Garrick Theater (June 18, 1905) which was later demolished in 1961. The show was reviewed poorly and because it run for less than a month it was considered a financial failure.
