Theatre Company Presents Alice in Wonderland
By Rainier Lin '25
"I am excited to see the whole production come together, from group script readings and blocking runs to an actual show. Even though this is my third year in Theatre Company, it still amazes me." - Ava Joa (Mouse)
The cast and crew of Theatre Company 10-12 are thrilled to present “Alice in Wonderland” as our 2024 production. The story follows Alice as she enters a whimsical world where nothing is as it seems. Throughout her journey, she encounters unusual characters who help her develop courage and conviction.
Our Theatre Company 10-12 class functions as a professional theatre company: we provide our own props, costumes, and hair and makeup items. When not rehearsing blocking or practicing lines, students are working diligently to sort through supplies in the drama room, to measure, sew and adjust costumes, and to build, order or repair props. Our student Stage Managers learn the intricacies of the play as they prepare to run the set changes, call for props, and cue the lighting and sound when we head to the stage in March.
