During the trial, the Mad Hatter, played by senior Michael Ingle in an oversized green top hat, tripped and hit his foot against a courtroom prop. Smith told him to do it again in the next run-through.

With less than two weeks until their performance, the class is combining their free-spiritedness with hard work. Smith said the one drawback of using a class as rehearsal rather than time after school is that every bit of the 50-minute period has to count.
