Actors need to be 16 years or older for this production. Anyone younger wanting to audition will have to have special permission from their parents and receive a personal invite from the director prior to the audition date.

Those auditioning will be asked to read with a British dialect and possibly improvise during the auditions. This is a family-friendly production and will include non-human roles, such as the Cheshire Cat, the Gryphon, the Mock Turtle, Humpty Dumpty, Flowers, and Playing cards

Those selected for the roles will be asked to sign up for Theatre 1102 - Theatre Practicum, and receive credit for performing in the production. The course is worth 3 credits. Performers ages 16 -18 will have to have a parent/guardian sign for them. Tuition is waived for this course but tech fees are not. Tech fees are $40 per hour ($120 total).
