The Tik-Tok Man of Oz
''The Tik-Tok Man of Oz'' is a musical play with book and lyrics by L. Frank Baum and music by Louis F. Gottschalk that opened at the Majestic Theatre in Los Angeles, California on March 31, 1913.〔"Tik Tok To Tick Tonight," ''Los Angeles Times'' (Mar. 31, 1913), p. III1.〕 It is loosely inspired by Baum's book ''Ozma of Oz'' (1907), incorporates much of the material from Baum's book ''Tik-Tok and the Nome King'' (1913), and was the basis for his 1914 novel, ''Tik-Tok of Oz''. It was promoted as "A Companion Play to The Wizard of Oz" and directed by Frank M. Stammers. The play is known from its advertising and published music, but survives only in earlier manuscript.
==Genesis==
The Shubert Organization expressed interest in an extravaganza based on ''Ozma of Oz'' in 1909.〔Michael Patrick Hearn. "Baum's Mystic Shrines of Pretty Fancy: Amy Leslie's Reviews of Oz Part III." ''The Baum Bugle'' 39:1 (Spring 1995) pp. 8-11, 9〕
The play began as a collaboration between Baum and composer Manuel Klein, an employee of the Shuberts, which they worked on during February–April 1909, first under the title, ''The Rainbow's Daughter, or the Magnet of Love'', but eventually retitled ''Ozma of Oz, or The Magnet of Love''.〔Michael Patrick Hearn. ''The Annotated Wizard of Oz''. W.W. Norton, 2000., p. 388-389〕 It incorporated elements of ''The Road to Oz'', which was published that July, mainly in the inclusion of two of its new characters, the Shaggy Man and Polychrome, the Rainbow's daughter (which created some continuity inconsistencies when it was adapted to the novel), both of which were influenced by ''Prince Silverwings''. Betsy Bobbin was intended to be Dorothy Gale, but the characters in ''The Wizard of Oz'' and ''The Woggle-Bug'' were contractually unavailable to him—although "Ozma" remained from ''The Woggle-Bug'', she was a wholly different character renamed Ozga for the books. It also adapted the Rose Kingdom from the Kingdom of Mangaboos in ''Dorothy and the Wizard in Oz'', and Queen Ann was derived from General Jinjur in spite of the failure of ''The Woggle-Bug''. The show languished before 1912, when Oliver Morosco agreed to produce it.〔Fraser A. Sherman. ''The Wizard of Oz Catalog''. McFarland, 2005. p. 70)〕
