St. Pius X performing ‘Alice in Wonderland’

DOWNEY – Students at St. Pius X — St. Matthias Academy’s Performing Arts Department will present “Alice in Wonderland” next weekend, May 16-17. Both performances are at 7 p.m., with a bonus show for partner middle schools May 15 at 10:30 a.m.

The production is based on the 1951 Disney film “Alice in Wonderland” and the novels “The Adventure of Alice in Wonderland” and “Through the Looking Glass” by Lewis Carroll.

Students from all grade levels at St. Pius X — St. Matthias Academy are featured in the production, which tells how Alice gets lost in Wonderland and tries to find her way home. The same students recently finished performing “11,” a play based on the events of Sept. 11, 2001.

Pre-sale tickets will be available for $5 prior to the May 16 show at the school’s main office, or $7 at the door.
