The Alice in Wonderland Cast
September 24, 2015
The Alice in Wonderland cast list has gone up, and the characters have been selected. Tim Brown, the director of the play, said the role’s are different in their own way and each actor has a different way of portraying them. The school play is November 13-14, and takes about seven weeks to set up everything and prepare.
“Our cast is going to create characters that are very different from what you’ve ever seen before, so it remains to be seen how well they do with that,”Brown said. The characters from our school’s play are going to be very original and special in Brown’s perspective. His goal is to have the actors create a character that comes from them.
The production that they’re putting on is from the 1880’s. “The character’s come from a book and the version walt disney made is how we identify those characters,” Brown said.The production is trying to make a new identity for those characters
“We definitely couldn’t do this without the tech crew,”Brown said. They have over 60 people on tech groups. They help make the play and set everything in place.
Any of the cast members are able to go and get one on one and help anytime. “We rehearse everyday after school, up until the opening night,” Brown said.There are also no understudies in this play because Brown wants to let one person bring there own originality to their character.
The Alice in wonderland play is definitely going to be original and different from the versions we’ve seen. The play is based off of an earlier version and has a lot of diversity in it.
