Bellenwhissle Productions Presents ALICE IN WONDERLAND At The Off Center Theatre, Opens 9/18
Bellenwhissle Productions proudly presents their inaugural show, Alice in Wonderland. Follow Alice as she falls, fumbles, dances and discovers her way through Lewis Carroll's timeless tale of growing up in a "grown-up" world. Cantankerous Queens, Dangerous Duchesses and a Truly Mad Hatter bring this riddle-ridden and vividly re-imagined Wonderland to life. Mysterious musings, fantastical findings and spectacular surprises await you, if you're curious enough to follow us down the rabbit hole...
