Summary
Theatre Lawrence is staging a magical, inclusive production of “Alice in Wonderland Jr.” through The Penguin Project, where every role is played by young actors aged ten to twenty-one with disabilities — supported by peer mentors. This year’s cast, working tirelessly together, brings a vibrant, collaborative energy to the stage, with multiple actors embodying the same character to highlight diverse perspectives. For many, it’s more than theater — it’s a transformative journey of confidence, community, and self-expression. Rehearsals end with a powerful tradition: singing “Don’t Stop Believin’,” a ritual that fuels joy and accomplishment since the program’s start. This show is a radiant celebration of inclusion, proving that every voice deserves a stage — and that theater can heal, unite, and inspire.
