FARCE/SATIRE. This adaptation incorporates not only Lewis Carroll’s two classic novels, Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass, but some of Carroll’s poems and even his essay “The Two Clocks” to create a fresh show that will entertain audiences of all ages. Alice ventures down the rabbit hole into Wonderland, where she meets a host of ridiculous characters who at times appear even more lost than Alice. Carroll’s gift for satire, parody, and word play is preserved in this smart, witty adaptation.
