Alice and The Mill on the Floss
Italia Conti 2nd Year Actors Present
Italia Conti Acting Second Year will be performing:
ALICE by Laura Wade, directed by Alex Knott at 4pm on the 31st July and 2nd August, 1pm on the 1st and 3rd August.
The White Rabbit is late for the Duchess. The Cheshire Cat won’t stop grinning. And the Hatter is... mad. In the middle of it all is Alice, a young girl with a vivid imagination and a family life thats less than perfect. In this adaptation by playwright Laura Wade, follow Alice as she escapes her bedroom to find adventure in a topsy-turvy world. Based on Lewis Carrolls classic tale, Wades adaptation breathes fresh life into a much-loved story about rabbit holes, pocket watches and talking caterpillars.
THE MILL ON THE FLOSS by Helen Edmundson, directed by Ellie Jones at 1pm on the 31st July, 2nd August, 4pm on the 1st and 3rd of August.
A re-invention of George Eliot's classic story of loss, tragedy and the relentless nature of fate. Outgrowing - but still hopelessly devoted to - her family, Maggie befriends Phillip Wakem, son of a local lawyer. But their fathers become embroiled in a bitter legal dispute that only the prosperous Wakem can win, and the Tullivers find fate dealing them the first harsh hand of many. With their father dead, the family must face up to their cold future together.
Please note that a ticket will gain your entry to only one of the plays - Alice or The Mill on the Floss - which are being performed on different times and dates (listed above and below.) Please make sure you have booked for the correct performance if you want to see a specific show.
