Alice is asleep. And in her dream, nothing makes sense — but somehow, everything does.

Down she goes, past the rabbit hole and straight into the most wonderfully strange landscape imaginable: a world where the Cheshire Cat speaks in Seussian rhyme, where the Queen of Hearts is running for office, where the Mad Hatter and Thing One and Thing Two are throwing the same tea party, and where the only way out is to figure out who you actually are.

The Very Strange Dream of Alice M. Who is an original Selah-Upstage production — a wholly invented collision of Lewis Carroll and Dr. Seuss, performed by our youth ensemble and made entirely our own. It is funny, it is wild, it is wise, and it is proof that our young artists are rooted in something real.

Selah Theatre Project, a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization​, is a socially conscious, issue-driven theatre company rooted in the belief that the stage is not merely a place of entertainment rather a place of reckoning, healing, and transformation. Founded and led by Artistic Director BleuJay Do'zia, Selah Theatre has spent fifteen seasons asking its community the questions that matter most: Who are we? Whose stories have we forgotten? What do we owe each other?

Based in Winchester, Virginia, Selah Theatre Project creates and produces work that lives at the intersection of art and advocacy. The company champions original new works alongside carefully selected licensed productions, always guided by the question of what a piece demands of its audience and what it gives back to its community. Selah Theatre's original works — including Ruth's Tea Room, When a Trumpet Cries, and the forthcoming The Colored Patriot — draw from history, memory, identity, and the lived experiences of people whose stories are too often absent from mainstream stages.
