Alice in Wanderland is an
original musical based on Lewis Carroll’s Alice in Wonderland and other
stories. Marking the conservatory’s 20th anniversary the musical is
a coming of age story that follows Alice from ages 4 – 14 as she learns to move
past relationships formed via technology and interact with others on a human
level. Set in the 21st century at Wanderland Academy, a finishing
school, Alice encounters an army of hand-held-device addicted schoolgirls
enslaved to a computer game controlled by the Red Queen. As she flees the Red Queen, and Wanderland,
she encounters a host of well-known Carroll characters who help her find
herself, and learn important life lessons, through song, dance and spoken word. Written and composed by Michael Lederman and Paul Godwin, with choreography by Kimberly Krol.
