Synopsis
This brand-new musical version of the timeless classic takes you down the rabbit hole with the ever-curious Alice to a land of zany adventures where nothing is as it seems. The White Rabbit, Tweedle-Dee and Tweedle-Dum, the Mad Hatter, the Caterpillar, the Mock Turtle, the mysterious Cheshire Cat, the Queen of Hearts, and all your favorites from Lewis Carroll’s beloved books make this a magical, tuneful, and over-the-top entertaining musical for the whole family!
ALICE IN WONDERLAND: Adaptive Edition has been adapted from the original Off-Broadway production. With the permission of the original authors, the Adaptive Edition has been carefully tailored by Janet Yates Vogt and Mark Friedman to make the show performance-ready for youth and adults with physical, developmental, and intellectual disabilities. Script and song lengths have been shortened, and tempos have been adjusted to sit more comfortably for performers. Stage movement and interaction between cast members have been set at a comfortable level, based on pilot productions developed alongside a team of professionals at Metzcor Community Campus in Cincinnati, Ohio.
