We are holding auditions for the 2011 Changing Lives Youth Theatre Ensemble’s Summer Company. Changing Lives is a group of teens who devise and perform original theatre pieces to educate their peers about safe and healthy relationships in an effort to prevent teen dating violence and relationship abuse. This program is a collaboration between Theatre Action Project and SafePlace.This is an opportunity to be part of our summer artists workshop, where ensemble members write original theatre pieces about issues that affect their lives, go on exciting field trips to local museums, see theatre around Austin and be a part of a fabulous overnight retreat in the Texas Hill Country -- all for FREE!
Those selected for the summer ensemble will meet on Tuesdays & Thursdays from 11am- 1pm at a central location, to be announced. The program will begin the week of June 13 and end August 8th, with a sharing of our work.

Wonderland
The Musical Misadventures of a Girl Named Alice
Book by James DeVita
Music and lyrics by Bill Francoeur
Directed by Engela Edwards
Family musical performed for and by youth.
Wonderland! is an unabashedly silly adaptation of Lewis Carroll's Through the Looking Glass, with hip-hopping music. It is an upbeat story that audiences of all ages will adore! You'll recognize some of your favorite familiar characters of Alice's Wonderland along with meeting dozens of new ones: a baseball team, a train conductor, star-struck tourists, knights, and much more. An eclectic mix of music that ranges from gypsy swing to doo-wop to bluegrass. Enjoy toe-tapping musical renditions of “Jabberwocky” and “The Walrus and the Carpenter” as well as other great numbers such as “Anything’s Possible,” “Step by Step” and the hysterical “I was a Good Egg But Then I Done Went Bad,” sung by Humpty Dumpty and the Dixie Chickens!
Produced by special arrangement with Pioneer Drama Service, Inc., Englewood, Co.
