A note from the director... MEET THE stage crew
What a joy it has been to be a part of such a fun production. I am impressed with the cast’s dedica- tion, hard work, and their love of being on stage. It has truly been a pleasure working with them.
Alice in Wonderland is a timeless classic. It is a pleas- ure to present to you these very colorful, creative and whimsical portrayals of Cheshire Cat, Alice, the Mad Hatter, the March Hare, the White Rabbit, Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum, and the many oth- er characters of Wonderland.
In Alice in Wonderland Jr, we see a young lady who tries to learn more about who she is and who she would like to become. This tale invites all of us to take a journey with Alice, and jump into at least Back Left to Right: Melani Vidal, Breyani Grant, one rabbit hole because: “If you don’t explore, Brianna Dannemiller, Asada Davis, Natalie Menor, you’ll never discover.” -Alice Mary Francis, Krystal Jeramiah, Anna Deer, Kiana Hill and Maya Robinson
Don’t be surprised if tomorrow Front Left to Right: Joshua Reger, Morgan Palent, morning, you wake up singing Esther Gratia, Peri Schandler, Paula Ortiz and Carla “Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah”, “Paint Jones (not pictured) the Roses Red”, or any num- ber of songs from the show. I Ushers apologize if you start to sing- Camille Bugayong Gabrielle Payne ing or humming the songs to Donna Cerpa Agustina Pedrido yourself the next couple of Livia Mair Tamyca Tunis Destiny Palmer days.
