Disney’s Alice in Wonderland Jr. comes to Burnham-On-Sea’s Princess Theatre

-

The magic of Disney’s Alice in Wonderland Jr. will be brought to the stage at Burnham-On-Sea’s Princess Theatre this month.

Junior members of local musical theatre group Burnham Excellent Entertainment Society (BEES), one of Somerset’s longest running drama groups, will be performing on Saturday November 27th at 7pm and Sunday 28th November at 3pm at the Princess Theatre.

The club’s Vikki Hart says: “With this being BEES’ first time back on stage in two years due to the pandemic, we are excited to bring you a zany but shortened musical, adapted specially for junior performers, based on the 1951 Disney film and the novels by Lewis Carroll.”

“Follow Alice as she navigates the curious world of Wonderland on her journey of self-discovery, encountering the ever-tardy White Rabbit, the grinning Cheshire Cat, a cool Caterpillar, a Mad Hatter, a Queen with quite a temper, and many more of literature’s beloved Wonderland characters.”

This musical includes favourites from the Disney cannon such as “I’m Late,” “The Unbirthday Song,” and “Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah” in a charming, updated retelling of the Lewis Carroll classic.

Vikki adds: “Whether this is your first experience with Alice or your hundredth, you’ll lose your head (and your heart) for Alice in Wonderland Jr.”

“BEES would like to thank Burnham-on-Sea & Highbridge Town Council and Sedgemoor District Council because without their valued funding assistance this year’s production would not be possible.”
