The Original World Premiere 2010 cast of Laura Wade's Alice at the Crucible Theatre, Sheffield in 2010.
The White Rabbit is late for the Duchess. The Cheshire Cat won’t stop grinning. And the Hatter is, well, mad. In the middle of it all is Alice, a young girl with a vivid imagination and a family life that’s less than perfect.
In this new adaptation by renowned playwright and Sheffield native, Laura Wade, you can follow Alice as she escapes her bedroom to find adventure in a topsy-turvy world. Based on Lewis Carroll’s classic tales, Wade’s adaptation breathes fresh life into the much-loved stories.
