I know this concept has probably been posted to death at this point but after another watch through I’m prettyy convinced of (at least) the characters below. I’m looking forward to another run through to see if I can find any more confirming Easter eggs.
Ted - Dorothy - goes back to Kansas after the adventure - gives ‘no place like home’ speech at last game
Beard - Toto - gets out of the plane before it heads back to Kansas just like Toto jumps out of the hot air balloon basket
Jamie - scarecrow - needs to find a brain
Roy - Tin man - needs to find a heart
Rebecca - cowardly lion - practices in the mirror to act like a lion to feel big and confident
Dr Sharon - the wizard
May (who has a wizard of oz pinball machine in her pub) - Mayor [‘May’or] of the munchkin city (Richmond)
Three bar patrons - lollipop guild
Rupert - wicked witch of the west (wicket witch of WEST ham)
Keely - Glinda the good witch of the north
Michelle - Aunt “M” and Ted’s son is named after Uncle Henry.
Dr. Sharon = Glinda
rebecca could also be the wizard, pulling the strings with hidden motives. and nate definitely embodies the cowardly lion seeking courage. both interpretations work well!
You had me sold at Lollipop guild.
Never heard of this before. I love it
I would say Keely is the Lion because 1) she’s literally dressed as a lion to sell cofka and 2) she is someone growing into her confidence as a leader and a boss throughout the run of the show
I’m thinking…. Higgins as the wizard and Rebecca as Glinda - she tries to make dreams come true, especially for Keeley the Richmond AFC fans who shout wanker at Ted are Rupert’s (wicked witch) flying monkeys. Is Ted’s wife Auntie Em who he has to leave before he appreciated how much she means to him? Plus… Beard as Toto is the best fan theory ever #fact
This is amazing!!
I would think Rupert is the wizard. He is popular to those in the emerald city but the main characters really know he is a fake. That’s my thought anyway.
pretty mean to call Dr Sharon the fakeass wizard, i think…
Love this!
