AUDITIONS! High School Play
Posted September 11, 2013 at 5:19 am by Tim Dustrude
All San Juan Island high school students are invited to audition for the Friday Harbor High School Drama Group’s production of Alice in Wonderland.
Auditions for the January 2014 play are being held Monday through Wednesday, September 16 through 18 from 3:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. in the high school’s drama room.
Director Jane Maxwell Campbell will not only be casting more than 30 actors and actresses from the island’s public and private high schools, but will also be looking for three different actresses to play Alice. She says she chose to have three identically-costumed actresses of three different sizes “so the audiences can see her shrinking and growing.”
This slightly more cartoon-like version of Lewis Carroll’s story (written in two acts by Anne Coulter Martens) also features a narrator role for the Cheshire Cat; and, of course, the Mat Hatter, White Rabbit and Queen of Hearts. A script is available for students to review at the FHHS library.
The production will run in the Whittier Theatre January 16-19.
