ABOUT THE SHOW
Step into the wacky world of Wonderland in this vibrant new retelling of a Disney classic!
When young Alice finds herself in a strange world where everything seems upside down, she must find her way home…and find herself along the way. As she travels through Wonderland, she encounters all of the iconic characters that audiences have come to love: including the ever-tardy White Rabbit, the grinning Cheshire Cat, a cool Caterpillar, the wacky Mad Hatter, and the hot-tempered Queen of Hearts.

AUDITIONS
Auditions for this production will take place on Tuesday, July 23rd and Thursday, July 25th. Callbacks for the show will be on Tuesday, July 30th by invitation.
The initial audition will consist of a singing audition and acting exercise. The invitational callbacks will include dance, singing, and readings from the script. We will be casting ages 6-14.
Audition Requirements:
Please prepare a 32 bar (~30 second) cut from a song that fits the style of the show and suits your voice. This is a musical with a classic Broadway musical sound, so consider songs from similar musicals like Mary Poppins, Sound of Music, Matilda, The Music Man, Once Upon a Mattress, James and the Giant Peach, Newsies, Cinderella, or similar. Avoid modern pop music and musicals from very different genres (“My Shot” Hamilton or “No Way” from Six, for example, will not tell us how your voice will fit into this show!)
Your audition should be memorized and show your ability to portray the character’s emotions, mannerisms, etc. Please bring a device to play an accompaniment track on, such as a smartphone.
Please note: There is a $175 tuition to participate in this MainStage production. If the tuition would create a hardship for your family, please apply for a scholarship.
