Here's what we've been working on!
"Alice's Wonder""Alice's Wonder" is a musical celebrating disability advocacy based on Lewis Carroll’s “Alice in Wonderland,” with original music and script created by participant artists.
Workshops for “Alice’s Wonder” are underway! We've had a great first month of sessions and have been spending some time drumming with Cedric, the percussion ensemble director, and working on building out this story. It's not too early to save the performance dates in your calendar! We'll be on stage at the Northfield Arts Guild Theatre on November 8, 9, and 10 later this year.
