Synopsis
This full length comedy 'panto-style' play allows for the inclusion of songs, dances sequences and music with plenty of fun in another twist to the wonderland story.
Alice has left wonderland and the Queen of Hearts, who has mellowed somewhat, is missing her. She summons a search party, so that Alice can be found and marry her son Jack.
He sets off with his friend the Ace of Hearts, The Duchess, Hatter, Cat and their servant the Two of Hearts. Their journey takes them to the Palace of Diamonds, where the Queen has sold her Diamond mine to the wicked Ace of Spades. His palace is awash with corruption, along with some heavy metal music.
They finally end up at the Palace of the jovial King of Clubs, where Duchess finds herself a husband. The Two of Hearts, who is really a clever practical girl, finds her true love. Ace finds a job and saves the day. Cat finds a soul-mate; Hatter finds new customers and Jack finds his Alice… but will their Happy-Ever-After be UP or DOWN the rabbit hole?
This is not a traditional “panto” but the fast-moving, colourful and witty script offers a large cast lots of opportunities for “doubling” or adding a big musical ensemble. |
