 * Dorothy Gale and Scarecrow have feelings for each other, Scarecrow revealed his feelings to her, while comforting her in the dungeon, and Dorothy Gale revealed her feelings to him during the song Because I have you
 * The scenes where Toto wakes Dorothy Gale's friends, the Jitterbug frees Dorothy Gale and Scarecrow, and the Lion needing the Tigress' help weren't put in the film, but they were put in the musical
 * While all the other characters are portrayed by humans, Tom, Jerry, the Mouse Queen, Tuffy, the Jitterbug, the other Nomes, the winged Monkeys, the Mouse Troops, the Kansas Animals, and the Tractor are portrayed as Puppets, while Toto is portrayed by a dog
 * Tom and Jerry didn't talk in the Movie, but in they talk in the Musical
 * The Wicked Witch of the West and the Winkie Guards make an offscreen cameo during the overture
 * During the Song Get Me Off, Scarecrow calls Dorothy Gale "Darling"
 * The Ruby Slippers transform into the other type of size of shoe for Ruggedo and later back to Normal, while being covered in mist
 * When Tin Man and Lion show up, instead of Tin Man saying, actually it's all of us, the Lion says "We're here"
 * Scarecrow's Line "We'd better save the hello's until we get rid of him" is never said, and instead of Tin Man saying "Look Out!" he yells "Watch Out!"
 * Tom and Jerry's reason why Dorothy couldn't ride the tractor is changed, from the two of them having wigs of Aunt Em and Uncle Henry, Jerry only answers telling her that she's just a kid, while Tom replies "Nope" before Dorothy asks why.

Trivia

 * At the end of the song Get Me Off, a piano verse of "If I Only Had a Brain" is played, while Scarecrow and Dorothy don't sing in that part.
