'Curiouser and Curiouser' On a glorious summer's afternoon, young Alice happens upon a smartly dressedrabbit looking at his watch and muttering 'I'm too late!'. This not being an everyday occurrence, she follows him down a nearby rabbit hole and falls into Wonderland. Both of Lewis Carroll's timeless children's stories Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, Through the Looking Glass and What Alice Found There are magically brought to life in this new adaptation by Adrian Mitchell, in a Christmas production by the RSC. The amazing Lobster Quadrille, the Queen of Hearts' infamous croquet match and the Mad Hatter's Tea Party are just a few of the remarkable events that you will see in this production.
