THROUGH THE LOOKING GLASS

By ANDREA SALADINO

ANDREA SALADINO FOR WIZARD WEEKLY

On October 20th, Masque and Mime will be putting on their first performance of the new school year. Every fall, Masque and Mime puts on a breathing taking performance of a Disney musical.  Last year, they put on High School Musical 2, which attracted a huge audience.

This year’s fall show is called Through the Looking Glass. Through the Looking Glass, is basically the story of Alice in Wonderland with a twist. In Through the Looking Glass, Alice has to make her way through a chessboard to become queen. Meanwhile, in Alice in Wonderland, this is not the case as she just is in Wonderland.  The leads in the play include Olivia Soto, who is Alice, Marisa Ambrosio, The White Queen, and Ally Wolf who is playing the Red Queen. 

In this Masque & Mime production of Through the Looking Glass, Mrs. Davis made sure to keep the main characters from the original Alice in Wonderland. She did this by having the Troubadours as characters from the original film. For example, the ump is White Rabbit, the catcher is the caterpillar, the vender is the Mad Hatter, and the pitcher is the Cheshire Cat. These roles are played by Brianna Poole, Celine Estrada, Matt Martinez, and Danielle Warn. 

So come out on October 28th at 7pm and October 29th at at 11am and 2pm to come see an amazing performance of Through the Looking Glass. See Mrs. Davis in the guidance office for more details.
