Boy: A lot of it didn't make sense and I liked that. I thought it was actually pretty well-written.
It was very stressful at times rehearsing. Lindsay: I imagine people have to know when
they're going to come in and talk at the same time.
Girl 1: I just wanted to say that I liked how much it related to the actual story. Like,
I haven't read Alice in Through the Looking Glass. I've only read parts of Alice in Wonderland.
But I liked that it was kind of expected but, at the same time, there was its own little
twists and quirks and things like that. And, I also liked, especially in the second act,
that there was so much room to play with things and that we were like, "Oh, well, I wonder
what she was thinking when we wrote that," and we didn't really know how to do it so
it probably looked different to you in parts. But it was just neat to see how everything
played out. Girl 2: It was really cool because it's, like,
it's the other side of the mirror. Girl 3: I like how well-written the play was
in general by you. Lindsay: Well, it's not really me. That's
Lewis Carroll. Girl 3: Yeah.
Lindsay; That's me taking from one form and putting it into another. Well, I've always
loved Alice in Wonderland and, when you look at it, it just lends itself to being theatrical.
And, also, being something that is a little non-realistic and a little out there and a
little weird and I really think that that's a good thing to have in theatre and a good
thing to have on-stage. It's always, always, always been in the back of my mind to do Through
the Looking Glass so it was just pure happenstance. Everything worked together and it's like,
"Okay! This is the time! I've got to do it!" and it just worked out perfectly that I was
able to do that. Girl 3: Yeah, like it was really detailed.
Like, I raved through the whole script. I was just so amazed. Like, how much time do
you spend on it? Because it was, like, really good detail.
Lindsay: I guess this was about a month from beginning to end. It was a lot. It was easy
because a lot of it was already there and I didn't have to create it. I just had to
tinker with it and sort of adapt it. So, other original stuff can take up to, like, a full-length
usually takes about a year. Well, I just want to say thank you. This is
the most important part of the writing process is actually seeing it come to life. So, without
you, I can't move forward with my work so you have played a very, very important role
in moving my work forward so thank you.
