THE BRASS TACKS ENSEMBLE
ANNOUNCES AUDITIONS FOR
“EAT ME: ALICE’S ADVENTURES IN THE WORKING CLASS”
A WORLD PREMIERE ADAPTATION OF LEWIS CARROLL’S
“ALICE’S ADVENTURES IN WONDERLAND”
WRITTEN AND DIRECTED BY ISAAC ELLIS
Artistic Director James Ingagiola and Executive Director Isaac Ellis are pleased to announce The Brass Tacks Ensemble’s auditions for Eat Me: Alice’s Adventures in the Working Class written and directed by Isaac Ellis.
Alice is a disillusioned employee stuck in the doldrums of corporate life. When the Division Director, Mr. Rabbit, suddenly walks out of a board meeting, Alice volunteers to bring him back. Yet as the stress of her job slowly pushes her over the edge, she finds herself navigating a building of usually egotistical and shrewd employees who have collided with the whimsical personas of Wonderland.
