Cedartown, Ga — Sept. 22, 2014: Cedartown residents have the chance next month to be tricked and treated to an original theatrical production written, directed and starring hometown folks.
A cast of more than 60 local actors and actresses will perform “Alice in Nightmareland” on Saturday, Oct. 18. Showtimes are 2:30 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. Tickets are $10 general admission.
Described as an Alice-in-Wonderland-meets-Tim-Burton performance, the show director, Roland Chandler, describes it as a family event. “It’s kind of a creepy but fun show with lots of laughter. Definitely a family-friendly show. It’s not like a gory spook house, it’s a great plot with great actors.”
Chandler, along with local residents Branson Lewis, Michael Carter and Kate Saxton, wrote the show’s script. “It’s a trip that Alice takes through being a victim of bullying in her life, and in the end, she triumphs. All of the characters in her “real life” take on distorted characters as she journeys through her nightmare. You’ll recognize Tweedle-Dee and Tweedle-Dumb, but we’ve added on with a new character named Tweedle-Dumber. The Cheshire Cat, the Queen of Hearts and the Caterpillar will all make an appearance,” Chandler explained. Audience interaction will be part of the two-hour show as well. Volunteers, making the production a true-community, are designing all costumes and sets.
