The Elly Award-winning Fairytale Town Troupers will begin their fifth season with "Alice in Boogie Wonderland," a retro-campy send up of the classic Lewis Carroll tale filled with energy, music and plenty of dancing. The show will be presented on Saturdays and Sundays, Apr. 21, 22, 28 and 29, at 12:30 and 1:30 p.m.
In this original production, little Alice stumbles into Boogie Wonderland in pursuit of a white-suited rabbit and finds a mystical dimension populated by the oddest assortment of characters imaginable, including the Disco Queen of Hearts.
"Alice in Boogie Wonderland" features Lindsay Ball as Alice; Taryn Colburn as the White Rabbit; Arrin Graham as the Cheshire Cat; Kennady Cantrell as the Mad Hatter; and Miranda Drolet as the Queen of Hearts.
Performances will be held in the Children's Theater. Tickets are $1 in addition to paid park admission. Fairytale Town members receive two-for-one admission. Tickets can be purchased at the Fairytale Town box office or at the entrance to the Children's Theater.
