PENSACOLA, Fla. — Pensacola Little Theatre’s 2009-2010 Season draws to a close with a family presentation of one of the most beloved stories in English literature.

Lewis Carroll’s novel “Alice in Wonderland” tells the adventures of a girl who falls down a rabbit hole into a magical and sometimes frightening new world.

Pensacola theater guru Dr. Stephen C. Lott wrote and is directing the play. His production will use magic, special effects, trap doors, puppets and a whole troupe of tumblers to create a complete Wonderland experience.

The title role of Alice is played by Treehouse Theatre veteran Caroline Pierce, whose credits include roles in “Go, Dog. Go!,” “The Velveteen Rabbit,” “Sleeping Beauty” and “A Treehouse Christmas Carol.”
