Current Production
Spring is around the corner, what better time for a tea party?
The Mad Tea Party, By Brian Taylor is a comedy featuring actors from southwest Michigan. Presented courtesy of Pioneer Drama Service, the play will be produced at Listiak Auditorium, May 1 and 2.
Lewis Carroll’s Wonderland characters are so... well, wonderful that favorite playwright Brian D. Taylor has brought them together in an original story with the same wit and whimsy as the classic tales. Mad Hatter, Dormouse, and March Hare meet for a tea party to honor Time, who has forgiven the Hatter and set time right once again. When the Jabberwock comes and wreaks havoc, the tea party guests — including the Caterpillar, the Duchess, the Frog Footman, and Tweedledee and Tweedledum — decide that something must be done. Time suggests they travel back through time to the moment when the Jabberwock arrives so that they might catch him. They travel back several times, but White Rabbit’s watch is fast, Hatter’s is slow, and they just can’t catch the Jabberwock. Finally, Hare realizes they must fix the nick in Time... Time’s cloak, that is, to save them from the Jabberwock! After all, a stitch in Time saves nine!
The Mad Tea Party will be presented May 1 and 2 at 7:30 at Listiak Auditorium, 600 Elkenburg St. South Haven.
Tickets are $15 for adults, $12 for students and Seniors, and $10 for youth six years old and younger. Tickets may be purchased at ourtownplayers.org or at the door a half hour before each show.
