The Drama Club is proud to present Marc Robin’s musical rendition of the timeless classic, Alice in Wonderland. Geared toward young and old alike, this production promises to be big, colorful and leaving audiences with a smile on their face.
Come and join Alice, played by freshman Marlisa Barrett, on her spectacular adventure through the wacky world of Wonderland. Meet the Mad Hatter, senior Nick Rossiter, and his tea-tasting sidekicks March Hare and Dormouse, portrayed by sophomore Brian Suchy and junior Kelly Devine. The ever-so-anxious White Rabbit is played by freshman Conor Jordan and the hilarious Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum are freshmen Allie Sadler and Peter Iliopoulos. Junior Shannon Flaherty dominates as the tyrannical Queen of Hearts while senior Chandler Poole begs her to spare his head as the Knave of Hearts. Other noteworthy performances include freshman Tessa Hughes as Caterpiller and seniors Savannah Haegar as Margaret, Kimmie Volkman as Sunflower and Emily Browy as the Cheshire Cat.
When asked what makes this Children’s production special, the show’s director, Marcel Graham stated, “Marc Robin does a brilliant job capturing the world the way a child sees it: a world filled with curiosity, wonder and adventure. Our previous show, The Little Mermaid, was written by the same playwright and was a huge hit for the whole family. Likewise, this production moves quickly and includes the audience a lot more than previous shows."
