Riverside Studios · London

Premiered 1886

Alice passes from one strange encounter to another, meeting rabbits, queens, tea-party guests and talking chess pieces across two dreamlike worlds.

First Night is a theatre diary for logging the shows you've seen and discovering what to see next.

Drama
The story

This two-act musical adaptation draws on both Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass. Alice encounters figures including the White Rabbit, Caterpillar, Cheshire Cat and Mad Hatter before the story moves through the looking glass to a second sequence involving the Red Queen, Tweedledum and Tweedledee, Humpty Dumpty and other familiar characters.

In the room

An episodic Victorian musical that gathers episodes and characters from both Alice books into two acts rather than following a single realistic plot.

Good fit if you like

literary fantasy, eccentric characters, episodic adventures and Victorian musical theatre.
