Synopsis:

Everyone is familiar with Alice's' antic adventures, and they are all here - but with an arresting difference. From the presumed innocence of the original is drawn a caustic and giddy revelation of the human psyche, and the dark, unsettling shadows which can linger there. Freud and Jung, Kafka and Dali, all make their presence felt, in a piece of pure theatre that is full of truth, and fun, and terror, and uncanny pertinence to our own topsy turvy times. As T.E. Kalem comments: "Alice is an exemplary instance of how a classic can be made 'new,' and one of the extremely rare instances of a book's being turned into a wholly satisfactory theatrical experience."
