Description
Join us down the rabbit hole this Christmas with Alice and friends for a madcap festive adventure!
It’s the Queen of Hearts un-birthday and the naughty Knave has a wicked plan to steal all the jam tarts.
With the help of the Duchess, a sassy Cheshire Cat and the maddest of Hatters, will Alice be able to keep her head and save Wonderland?!
__________
"Alice in Wonderland" by Tom Whalley, inspired by the novel by Lewis Carroll.
‘This amateur production of “Alice in Wonderland” is presented by arrangement with Tom Whalley Pantomimes (www.tomwhalleypantomimes.com)’

HOW IS THE RELAXED PERFORMANCE DIFFERENT TO THE OTHER PANTO PERFORMANCES?
There is a BSL interpreter on stage.
The lights are dimmed not off.
All flashes and bangs are removed.
You can move around if you’d like to. If you’d like to leave the auditorium and chill out in the foyer for a bit and then come back in, you can.
A relaxed performance can benefit audience members with learning disabilities, neurodivergent audience members, or those with sensory triggers such as flashing lights or sudden loud noises.
It’s also a great option for young children visiting for the first time, and families with babies who may need to leave and re-enter the performance.
That said, a relaxed performance can be enjoyed by everyone. The story, structure, music and dance numbers remain the same.
