“Where’s Amy?” … Well, I was stuck in The Rabbit Hole with the cast of “Alice in Wonderland” at the Booth Tarkington Civic Theatre! I was late for a date but was side-tracked with talented little actors who put on an amazing musical. The fun started as I watched the cast and crew belt out favorite songs of my childhood past. Then, I was lucky enough to mingle with some of the cast members afterwards. They were in a hurry to get to their own private Kiddo Tea Party but had fun posing and chatting with “Where’s Amy?”. They told me how much they enjoyed taking classes at Jr. Civic and being in the shows. Later, the adults had their own tea time at an adult “Twisted Tea Party” where they were entertained by past and present members of Jr. Civic Theatre. The Twisted Tea Party was all about having a fantastic time, but it also helping to support the Civic Educational Programs. Guests could buy a special ‘tag’ to help Jr. Civic or take home a bottle of wine from the whacky wine pull. Everyone had a magical evening, delicious food by Jonathan Byrd and colorful psychedelic cocktails to sip on through out the night. Hats off to the wonderful cast, crew and to Civic Theatre’s own Brent E. Marty who directed and choreographed the show. Yep, the event was a true FUNdraiser! Enjoy!
