The Munchkin Skag Problem

Irvine Welsh’s play about the “the private lives of the Munchkin characters from The Wizard of Oz“ is set to debut in Dublin. The Scotsman is reporting that “in one of the classic film’s background scenes, a Munchkin can reportedly be seen hanging from a tree, having apparently committed suicide. Welsh uses that as the starting point for his play which tells the story of four of those involved – one Irish, two British and one American.”

No word yet on whether skag is a problem in the back alleys of Oz, just off the Yellow Brick Road.
