DOWN THE RABBIT HOLE.

2024/2025 Junior Troupe (ACT ONE) –

ALICE IN WONDERLAND
Alice, a curious young girl, tumbles down a rabbit hole into the whimsical world of Wonderland. She encounters eccentric characters like the White Rabbit, the Cheshire Cat, the Mad Hatter, and the tyrannical Queen of Hearts. As she navigates nonsensical conversations and surreal adventures, she struggles to make sense of this bizarre land, ultimately confronting the Queen in a chaotic trial before waking from what seems to be a dream.


2024/2025 Senior Troupe (ACT TWO) –
Through the Looking-Glass
Alice steps through a magical mirror into a chessboard world where everything is reversed. She embarks on a journey to become a queen, meeting peculiar figures like Tweedledee and Tweedledum, Humpty Dumpty, and the enigmatic White and Red Queens. As she moves through the game-like landscape, she faces more riddles and paradoxes, ultimately reaching the final square and transforming into a queen—only to awaken once more, left to wonder whether her adventures were real or just dreams.

SPECIAL EVENTS

THURSDAY, JULY 10th at 7:00 PM
Pay-What-You-Choose Night

Our "Pay-What-You-Choose" (PWYC) performance allows audience members to decide how much they want—or can afford—to pay for their ticket. Instead of a fixed price, patrons can contribute any amount they feel is appropriate, with a suggested minimum of $10. This model makes theatre more accessible to a wider audience while still encouraging financial support for the production. PWYC tickets can be purchased in advanced via our online box office, or at the door prior to the performance. Cash, credit and E-Transfer are accepted.
