LOBSTER ALICE
SEPTEMBER – October 2014
John Finch is an uptight animator working on Disney’s Alice and Wonderland, who also happens to be in love with his secretary – Alice. Alice is young woman who knows she wants something more from life. When Salvador Dali arrives at the studio to create his own animated short, he turns both of their lives into a tornado mixture of Surrealism and Wonderland!

REVIEWS
“Director Amber Jackson has assembled a brilliant cast, creating an anarchic and, yes, surreal atmosphere in which anything and everything can happen.”
– Andrew White, DC Broadway World
“Lobster Alice is a spectacular production of a very funny absurdist play.”
– Lorraine Treanor, DC Theatre Scene
“the characters of Lobster Alice, as well as the inspired directorship, artistic vision and design that made this play an otherworldly, wonderous experience.”
– Heather Hill, Maryland Theater Guide
“Oh Frabjous Day!! I must say, the toves were slithy! And gyring and gimballing were happening all over the stage! And, this take on the creation of Alice in Wonderland really lived up to its promise.”
– Cyle Durkee, DC Metro Theater Arts
