December 19, 2008 - Loudonville Elementary School recently staged several performances of "Follow that Rabbit," a musical based upon Lewis Carol's "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass."

From the moment Alice fell down a rabbit hole into the zany world of Wonderland, the fun never stopped, and the audience members met talking birds and animals, singing flowers, hilariously comic kings and queens… and found themselves attending a race where the contestants run in circles getting nowhere and everybody wins! There was a frantic tea party ruled over by the Mad Hatter; and a funny scene where Alice dealt with a pepper-sneezing Duchess and a baby that turned into a pig! The finale featured Alice at the trial of the Knave of Hearts for stealing tarts; and she was suddenly the accused. It was a modern view of a classic where nonsense makes good sense, and Alice even found a new friend, the watch-carrying White Rabbit.
