We have two extremely talented WGHS students starring in the premiere season of Alice: A Wonderland Musical at the Kiri Te Kanawa Theatre, Aotea Centre. Poppy Simpson Glover (playing Duck) and Beatrix Richardson, playing the Cheshire Cat).
“I have been a part of the National Youth Theatre for two years now. I have previously played a lead in their other performances of CATS, High School Musical, Joseph, and now Alice, in the role of the Cheshire Cat. I was beyond excited to get this role, and I’m ready to bring everything I can to it. I am so looking forward to the shows commencing in just a couple of weeks!”
– Beatrix Richardson (9WSM)
“I was absolutely over the moon when I found out I got the part. Alice is my first show, so I felt very proud that I made a memorable impression in my audition and got the part that I did. I am looking forward to being on stage and seeing the show come to life before me in one of Auckland’s biggest theatres, Aotea Centre. This show is a dream come true, and I am looking forward to so many more!”
– Poppy Simpson Glover (10OLN)
