Irvington Middle School Goes to Wonderland

• The following is a notice from the Irvington School District

On Friday, April 12, at 7:30 p.m., and Saturday, April 13, at 5:30 p.m., the Irvington Middle School Drama Club will present "Alice in Wonderland Jr.," at the campus A&A theater.

Produced through a program titled, "The Broadway Junior Collection,” the show is based on the 1951 Disney movie “Alice in Wonderland” and the novels “The Adventures of Alice in Wonderland” and “Through the Looking Glass” by Lewis Carroll.

Broadway Junior is a division of Music Theatre International that abridges classic Broadway musicals into special editions for ages 8-14 to perform.

More than 60 students are involved (grades 6, 7 and 8), both on stage and behind the scenes. Some high school students from the Tech Crew (advised by Irvington graduate Ryan Frame) are also volunteering their time to help the middle school students build scenery, create lighting effects, run sound, and assist backstage.

Tri-M students are volunteering their time to usher at the door at both performances. The Tri-M Music Honor Society is advised by middle school science teacher Philip Levine.

General admission tickets are $5 and are available at Irvington Printing.

For more information on the show, or to get tickets, contact music teacher and director Stephen P. DiGiovanni or Mary Bachrach at 914-591-9494. Tickets will also be sold at the door.
