Popcorn Hat Players to Present ALICE'S ADVENTURES IN WONDERLAND (AND THROUGH THE LOOKING GLASS, 3/22
By: Tyler Peterson Jan. 20, 2014
Gamut Theatre Group's Popcorn Hat Players present "ALICE'S ADVENTURES IN WONDERLAND (AND THROUGH THE LOOKING GLASS)" written by Sean Adams, an original work based on the two classic books by Lewis Carroll. Performances are Saturday, March 22, 2014 at 2:30 and 7:30 at Whitaker Center's Sunoco Theatre in Downtown Harrisburg. The much-beloved tale has been adapted into a full-length play performed by students, ages 6 through 18.
Bored with rules and lessons, young Alice finds herself literally tumbling into an adventure after following a smartly-dressed white rabbit down a hole and into a land of nonsense, where everything is what it isn't. Throughout her journeys, first in Wonderland and then in Looking-Glass Land, Alice meets a colorful cast of memorable characters in a tale that combines nursery rhymes, children's toys and turns of phrase, turning each on their head with the dream-like logic of a child. Curiouser and curiouser!
Directed by Melissa Nicholson, the cast of "ALICE'S ADVENTURES IN WONDERLAND (AND THROUGH THE LOOKING GLASS)" is composed of both former and current students of Gamut's Theatre School program, as well as newcomers to the Gamut Theatre. The performance will feature singing, dancing, staged combat, and the irreverent humor that the Popcorn Hat Players are known for, as well as giving the cast of students a chance to learn the ins and outs of a professional theatrical production as they display their own incredible talent.Videos
