“A winning blend of vaudeville, English pantomime and music hall.” Drama-logue

One special added twilight performance – have the kids dress up and go out for an early evening of theatre perfect for the whole family. Join Alice as she accepts an invitation from the Queen of Hearts to return to the Wonderland of her youth. Will Alice prevail, or are the Cards stacked against her? Will the Queen suffer a heart attack? Lovely audience participation throughout the production helps Alice set a topsy-turvy Wonderland aright in this zany musical comedy.
