Summer Play in the Park
Tommy and the Jabberwock
We are looking for energetic teen and adult actors who have great
comedic timing to audition for our 15th Summer Play in the Park.
Writer-director: Tanya Piejus
Tanya has performed in two previous summer plays, written and directed
a children’s play for Kapitall Kids’ Theatre and directed several plays for
Stagecraft Theatre.
Loosely based on Jabberwocky, Lewis Carroll’s famous nonsense poem,
Tommy and the Jabberwock has all the elements we’ve come to expect of KAT’s outdoor plays for
families – funny stuff, scary stuff, audience interaction and a happy-ever-after ending.
