“Alice in Wonderland” review

The 2019 Cast of “Alice in Wonderland”

Following the Graham Regional Theatre summer camp for 2019, the campers performed “Alice in Wonderland Jr.” June 7 and 8 at the Graham Memorial Auditorium. This fast-paced musical production offered the audience a high-tech rendition of this classic story.  

With Alice shrinking and growing, the story tells the tale of a young girl who chases the white rabbit down the rabbit hole to Wonderland.  We meet the Cheshire cat, a stylish Caterpillar, the King and Queen of Hearts, The Mad Hatter, the March Hare, and several other crazy and fun characters.  Students learned the lines and songs before camp and then had five days to reach a performance-ready show. Under the direction of Katie Huitt and Stephanie Sanders, the students had a fun week of learning.

The backgrounds, costumes, and talents of these students brought Graham and the surrounding areas a high-quality theater experience!  

The cast members included Stormie Gage (Cheshire Cat 1), Kenzie Gough (Cheshire Cat 2), Kennedy Shumate (Cheshire 3), Laura Chapman (Mathilda), Sarah Huitt (Alice), Natalie Crawford (Tall Alice), Josie Bagley (Small Alice), Bryanna Nickel (White Rabbit), Karson Gage (Doorknob), Reagan Menard (Dodo Bird), Allie Robinson (Tweedle Dum), Malia Allsup (Tweedle Dee), Jade Dospapas (Rose), Candy Barrett (Petunia), Kaidee Allsup (Lily), Lola Cook (Violet), Patton Fry (Daisy), Faris Sanders (Caterpillar), Tyler Lemley (Mad Hatter), Madison Freeman (March Hare), Dylan Allsup (Royal Cardsman/Ace of Spades), Reagan Menard (Royal Cardsman 2/ Two of Clubs, Ellie Harris (Royal Cardsman 3/Three of Diamonds), Karson Gage (Royal Cardsman 4), Cassidy Freeman (Queen of Hearts) and Liam Byars (King of Hearts).
