Working with this ensemble has been a delight and many of the creative ideas have been drawn from all ages of the cast and crew. It has been a true adventure and a lot of fun to work on. Alice is a clever, outspoken little girl with a rich inner world. She is full of curiosity and she is very spirited – she has a strong sense of justice and fair play and dislikes being dismissed. We would like to thank everyone who has made this production possible. Thank you to our wonderful cast, crew, musicians and composers for their creative input into the production; parents for their support and endless transport to and from rehearsals. What a wonderful experience. Thank you all.
