Due to weather postponements this past weekend, Artistic Director, Dr. Wrenn Goodrum, has added two performances, May 11 at 1:30 p.m. and 4 p.m. Dr. Goodrum conceived the immersive experience and adapted the script from the book by Lewis Carroll. Just like Alice, (or in this production four Alices!) a maximum of sixteen audience members per Alice must make a choice to follow Alice either through The Garden Adventure or The Forest Adventure. 

The cast, 26 youth aged 7-18 are from Davidson, Cornelius, and Mooresville, bring this production to life.

The Garden Adventure will guide you from the Duchess and the Cook, the Cheshire Cat, the Gardeners, and the Flowers, before navigating an incline to walk down into the Hatter’s Tea Party.  Viewers will find places to rest in and around the school. There is minimal seating.

The Forest Adventure will encounter the Cheshire Cat, Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum, The Caterpillar Diva and the Gryphon and Mock Turtle, all on a path through the forest near a pond.  There is limited accessibility with no seating.

Each journey winds up at the Mad Hatter’s Tea Party, where an artisan cookie and beverage will be served. Audiences will have a chance to play croquet with The Queen and King of Hearts.  In the grand finale everyone will witness Alice’s trial as the dramatic finish.

As the show is an outdoor experience, be sure to have bug spray and sunscreen handy.

All tickets are $20 and include refreshments at the Tea Party and the North Carolina sales tax.
