Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland
Adapted from the tale by Lewis Carroll​

CONCEPT

Alice in Wonderland has always been a world of whimsy and weirdness—but at its core, it's a story about the disorientation of growing up. In this adaptation, we followed Alice not just through the chaos of Wonderland, but through the emotional terrain of identity, independence, and change. Wonderland became a place where childhood logic meets adult contradiction—a space where nothing quite fits, and everything is shifting. Our Alice was curious, confused, bold, and vulnerable, navigating a dreamscape that echoed the questions young people quietly carry: Who am I becoming? What do I leave behind? This production leaned into the surreal as a metaphor for the messy beauty of growing up.

SET DESIGN

Our set was built to disorient and delight—a visual echo of the world Alice tumbles into. Inspired by the impossible geometry of M.C. Escher, the design played with perspective, symmetry, and illusion. Staircases twisted into nowhere, doorways led to themselves, and frames folded in on each other, creating a world that defied logic just as Wonderland should. This wasn’t a backdrop—it was a physical metaphor for Alice’s journey. As she questioned who she was and where she was going, the set refused to offer solid ground. Like growing up, it asked: Can you trust what you see? What happens when the rules no longer apply?
