2010/11 Junior Drama: Alice in Wonderland
This year the Juniors performed Alice in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll; however they added their own spin to it by incorporating two Alices fighting for the lead role throughout the play. Each Alice visited peculiar places in Wonderland such as Humpty Dumpty's wall, neighbored by five colorful flowers, Tweedledee and Tweedledum's playground, the mad Hatter's Tea Party, The Caterpillar with his blue notes, and the Queen's Croquet Game. However if "Country Alice" Paige Holub is finally tired of stealing the Queen's cherry tarts, she and "Modern Alice" Becca Lewis realize they are surrounded by mere cards! Their loyal friend Chessy, played by Seth Fox, reveals that the key to their adventure was Understanding. The set decorations exceeded "off the ground" standards with Mrs. Lewis' eccentric door and paintings of scenes from the origanal book, as well as Mrs. de Jager's florid flowers and Mr. Stanley's giant mushroom. All the picturesque pieces swept the audience into Wonderland itself.
