Synopsis:
Dorothy is a paper doll who lives in Paperville, USA. She hosts a radio talk show on station WXYZ in which she gives love advice to her loyal listeners. When Dorothy takes an interest in her next door neighbor Walter, she finds herself at a loss, unable to communicate the language of the heart without the safety of her microphone. Meanwhile, Walter falls in love with the woman he hears on the radio every day, not knowing she lives right next door. Enter into the mix: a mime (Dorothy's best friend), a quartet of harmony singing radio announcers, a 12 year-old boy genius, and you have the beginnings of what Ask Dorothy has to offer.
Ask Dorothy is a quirky, funny, family friendly tap-dancingly enjoyable show with a good message about being happy with yourself.
