Description

This original pop/rock opera version is like no Alice you’ve ever seen -it’s a “wonder-filled” new musical full of surprises and twists on the classic story. Alice Lidelle is a high school senior who loves the band “The Red Queen” and dislikes a homework assignment from her teacher, Miss Turtle. When she and her sister (dressed as a white rabbit for a costume party) are grounded the night of the concert, the two are sent spiraling down, down, down into a topsy-turvy world. A 2005 Stephen Schwartz/ASCAP national award winner based upon Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass by Lewis Carroll, this modern adaptation filled with contemporary rock-style music is sure to fill audiences with wonder.
