Auditions for "Alice in Wonderland"

   Huntington's long-running children's theatre will kick off its 29th season this weekend with auditions for Alice In Wonderland. 

   Auditions for the non-musical play will be held Sunday, August 12 from 2 to 5 p.m. at the Pea Ridge United Methodist Church at 5747 East Pea Ridge Road in Huntington. 

   It’s open to kids starting in 2nd Grade to High School Seniors. Just arrive at the church anytime between 2 and 5 p.m. - kids will fill out an information form and will be given a script page to look over. For the audition, they can read from the page. That's it!

   Performances of Alice In Wonderland will be on Sept. 27 - 30. 

   Follow that rabbit to a delightful, entertaining world of childhood fantasies. Alice journeys into a world of talking animals, comic royalty and races where the contestants run in circles! There are also the Mad Hatter’s frantic tea party, the watch-carrying White Rabbit and talking flowers. Along the way Alice must deal with a sneezing duchess and a baby that turns into a pig! The finale has Alice watching a trial, but she suddenly finds herself the accused! The play gives a modern view to an old classic, where nonsense makes quite good sense.
