Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland

About the show

What makes you think that change is such a bad thing?

Alice doesn’t belong. Nobody notices her. So why shouldn’t she do something reckless? Like following a white rabbit – like slipping into a world where time bends, riddles multiply, and everyone demands to know who she is.

In Chinonyerem Odimba’s dazzling new version of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, Lewis Carroll’s classic is reborn, taking the audience through the looking glass and reimagining a timeless world of curiosity, chaos, and croquet.

But at the centre of it all is Alice: curious, brave, and desperate for something more.

Playwright and poet Chinonyerem Odimba (Princess & The Hustler, The Bird Woman of Lewisham) brings her trademark lyricism, political sharpness and vibrant theatricality to a story of girlhood, identity, and the search for belonging, directed by Matt Hassall.

Following last year’s sell-out production of Treasure Island, the OT Young Company return with the biggest show of the OT’s year.
