Synopsis

Adapted from Lewis Carroll's classic, this exciting play, with music, shows Alice going through the Looking Glass into a world of strange back-to-front magic.

Optional glove puppet and Black Light Theatre interludes.

One basic set.

A flexible cast of 23, with most parts susceptible to doubling.

One sleepy afternoon, Alice, playing chess by herself, sees a real Red Queen through the Looking Glass.

Stepping through the mirror she meets the Kings and Queens of her chess set.

The whole world is marked out as a chess board, across which she must travel as a pawn.

She meets talking flowers, Tweedledum and Tweedledee, sees Humpty Dumpty fall from his wall, meets again the Mad Hatter and the March Hare, and witnesses the furious battle between the Lion and the Unicorn fighting for the crown.

The gentle White Knight rescues her from the cruel Red Knight, so that she herself can become a Queen.

Or is it all a dream?

A celebrated success in Australia.
