Tea Ingredients:
- MAD TEA PARTYAs a freelance stage director and Artist-in-Residence I have had two stints at Huntington University (Indiana.) Our playful production of ALICE IN WONDERLAND had an inventive cast including (L - R photo above, left): Kylie Edmonds as Doormouse; Mr. Jeffrey Blossom as March Hair; McNair Wilson, Director; Lauralee Brautigam as Alice; and the indefatigable Daniel Neil Olson as a very Mad Hatter. (Photo by Mr. Mike Burnett.) I love directing for the stage–call me, TODAY!
