Nelson Youth Theatre looking for cast for Alice in Wonderland
By Contributor
Nelson Youth Theatre’s fifteenth production jumps down the rabbit hole with Alice in Wonderland.
Youth actor Zooey Bingham’s faithful, “darker” script adaptation of the Lewis Carroll classic — originally titled “Alice’s Adventures Under Ground” — will rehearse one or two afternoons a week from February to April.
Youth actors of all levels from age seven to 16 are welcome to join NYT’s keen, fun group of returning cast members.
An actor-driven vehicle where “the play is the thing”, NYTʼs past successes include: “Juliet & Romeo”, “The Nuppet Show”, “The Princess Bride”, “Monster Mash”, “The Tempest”, “The Portal: Beyond the Wall”, “The Best Christmas Pageant Ever!”, “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow”, “Zombie Apocalypse” and “A Midsummer Nightʼs Dream”
NYT director Jeff Forst has helmed several dozen plays in addition to being a producer, writer, and actor.
He has a degree in English Literature from the University of Victoria, with professional acting training from the Gastown Actors Studio. More importantly, every cast member receives a souvenir show T-shirt.
