“Lewis Carroll has [written] a charming book, where those thousands of children who have laughed over the adventures of Alice, that most delightful of little girls, may follow their heroine through a new wonderland. This realm of marvels is Looking-glass House.”” The Manchester Guardian
An NAC English Theatre Production in association with Stratford Festival
A madly inventive coming-of-age story for everyone!. When Alice enters the Looking-Glass World, she experiences fantastical adventures with a dizzying array of extraordinary characters – rival queens, Tweedledum and Tweedledee, Humpty Dumpty, the White Knight and many others. This classic sequel to Alice in Wonderland is a surreal and stunning Victorian vaudeville – high-end, low-tech fantasy from NAC English Theatre Artistic Director Jillian Keiley and celebrated designer Bretta Gerecke. Alice is superb family entertainment with audience interaction, zany characters and flamboyant design.

Alice Through the Looking-Glass was commissioned by the Stratford Festival and had its world premiere on July 10, 1994. Directed by former NAC English Theatre Artistic Director Marti Maraden and starring Sarah Polley, it was such a success that it was revived in 1996.
