The school prospectus states: "The Norris Theatre Department consists of students grade 9-12. The actors and actresses are what make Norris Theatre as successful as it is. Any student willing to put in the work can audition for the theatre department, and many often do. Most students who participate in theatre do so throughout their entire high school career. The majority of Seniors in theatre have been there all four years of high school, giving them the leadership abilities they need to make a show a success."

ALICE IN WONDERLAND
A "Theatre UAF" student production by the University of Alaska, Fairbanks Theater Department October 1999 The play ran in the Salisbury Theatre Complex for a week, and is noted for it's professional-standard costumes and set design.
It's interesting that this is the only theatre production I know which has avoided the usual blue dress and pinafore, and presented Alice after the style of Arthur Rackham in a "twenties" style dress with the sash low on the hips.
There were some other innovations, with the cat portrayed unusually in a "vamp" interpretation. In addition to multiple Alices (pictured below), there were also four White Rabbits.
