Lewis Carroll meets Lady Gaga in this psychedelic update of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. This new adaptation blends the lyrical whimsy of Alice with high-octane physical theater and the dynamic vision of acclaimed Hungarian director János Szász (Mother Courage, Marat/Sade, The Seagull). The result is a fresh, funny, and emotional remix of Carroll's classic coming-of-age tale.
Alice vs. Wonderland
Now playing - performance added on 10/3 at 7:30 by popular demand!
“It is a rare treat to see every single piece of a theatrical puzzle fit so perfectly together. And it is rarer indeed when brilliant is truly the only way to describe a production.”
— Boston Metro, on Szász’s production of The Seagull
Tickets may become available for sold-out performances on the night of the show.
Cancellation line will start a half-hour prior to curtain at the Loeb Drama Center and any available tickets will be released prior to curtain.
“I want to create theater that makes the spectators use their hearts, brains, and nerves. I want to see how the actors react to their characters and I want the audience members to witness everything the actors are feeling. I’m always trying to break down the barriers between the audience and the playing space."
— János Szász
