Alice in Wonderland
Presented by Meridian Theatres @ Centrepointe
Enjoy this timeless Lewis Carroll classic with a unique twist. The setting is no longer a garden but a library full of pop-up books! Alice hides in her father’s library and out of nowhere appears a rabbit, eater of novels.
Wanting to keep the rodent from devouring all the books, Alice chases the rabbit through his borough and discovers a wonderland.
Late for his appointment with the Queen of Hearts, the Rabbit leaves Alice in a hurry, but forgets his gloves. These gloves he must wear in the sovereign’s presence otherwise: “Off with his head!”.
Eager to save the Rabbit’s life, Alice dashes to his rescue and encounters strange and fascinating characters such as Humpty Dumpty the egg, a philosophizing Caterpillar, Tweedledee and Tweedledum, the Cheshire Cat, the Mad Hatter and the Snark Hunter, in this intriguing universe where rabbits are late and quarrels make good friends.
Each book is then a discovery and a door to the next adventure. As much as it is a praise of reading, Alice in Wonderland is also a gateway to the imagination… Will you follow the white rabbit?
