The Central Lakes College Children’s Theatre class will
present “Alice’s Excellent Adventure in Wonderland” by Dennis Lamberson for the
public in the Chalberg Theatre Sunday, April 22 at 1 and 3 p.m. The show,
which runs about 45 minutes and doesn’t have an intermission, will also be
staged for school groups of elementary-age pupils, with tickets not on sale to
the public, at 10 and 11 a.m. on April 17, 19, and 26 and 10 a.m. on April 24.
On a lazy summer afternoon, Alice can’t believe her eyes when a white
rabbit wearing a waistcoat and carrying a pocket watch dashes by her. Alice
chases after him only to fall down a rabbit hole and arrive in a strange land
where common sense fails and nonsense reigns supreme!
Throughout her curious and bizarre
predicaments, Alice remains sensible and reasonable in spite of meeting an
excitable Mad Hatter, a grinning Cheshire cat, a grumpy Humpty Dumpty and the
temperamental, croquet-playing Queen, and more.
Based on Lewis Carroll’s unique and
unforgettable classic, Central Lakes College’s new version has been adapted for
young audiences while keeping the fun and fantasy of the original. This
production is suggested for children as young as five.
