A world of fantasy and fun awaits with Ballet Victoria’s performance of “Alice In Wonderland”.
Set to a score by Benjamin Britten, this storybook ballet is described as playful and quirky, and features iconic characters from Lewis Carroll’s book, including: the Mad Hatter, Queen of Hearts, and a few special guests.
Bold choreography, striking costumes, and original sets and projections, will bring the retelling of this classic story to life, as Alice dives into the absurd, meeting peculiar creatures in a blend of reality and fantasy.
