“We love providing an opportunity for aspiring young actors to participate in live theatre. Children’s Theatre is like planting seeds of creativity in the garden of the soul; as we nurture each performance, we cultivate not just art, but a generation ready to dream boldly.” Bonnie Hargrove, director of USCB Center for the Arts and Beaufort Children’s Theatre.
So come fall down the rabbit hole with Alice as she navigates the curious world of Wonderland on her journey of self-discovery. Along her adventure, Alice encounters the ever-tardy White Rabbit, the grinning Cheshire Cat, a cool Caterpillar, the wacky Mad Hatter, a temperamental Queen, and many more beloved Wonderland characters in this charming, updated retelling of the classic Lewis Carroll stories. Adapted especially for young performers, the musical includes favorite songs from the Disney canon such as “I’m Late,” “The Unbirthday Song,” and “Painting the Roses Red,” in addition to music from the 2010 Tim Burton live-action film. Whether this is your first experience with Alice or your hundredth, you’ll lose your head (and your heart) for Alice in Wonderland JR.!
