SHOW DATES:
April 23, 25, 26, 27 @ 7:00pm April 28 matinee @ 2:30pm ABOUT Prince Street Players' Version of
ALICE IN WONDERLAND Alice in Wonderland, the most frequently quoted and well-known children's story of all time, is brought to life by The Prince Street Players, the company that has become synonymous with "theatre for young audiences." Lewis Carroll's unflappable young heroine, Alice, takes a tumble down an enchanted rabbit hole to an off-kilter world of mock turtles, dancing flora, punctual rabbits and mad tea parties. Playing cards hold court, and nothing is as it seems in this land where whimsy and wordplay are the order of the day. Will Alice be able to find her footing in this bizarre place? More importantly, will she ever figure out how to get home? |
SHOW HISTORY
Founded in 1965 by Jim Eiler, The Prince Street Players, Ltd., began a new era in family theatre. Starting in a loft on Prince Street in New York City as a repertory company and then expanding rapidly to include several touring companies playing East Coast "stock" theatres and schools, their reputation quickly spread, and The Prince Street Players became a leading name in quality family theatre on Broadway and network television.
That reputation has been upheld for over thirty years as the Company performed to great acclaim, both nationally and internationally. Although no longer touring, their eleven musical shows are being performed worldwide. Scripts and scores are available to be leased for performance by schools and theatres through Music Theatre International. Each script sent out by MTI includes production notes, costume and set sketches, and a wealth of information to help each presenter produce a polished theatre event. These musicals are designed to be performed for family audiences, and are considered by many to be "simply the best around."
