"I am real!" said Alice, and began to cry.

In this unprecedented rendering of a much-loved classic, Malthouse Theatre and Victorian Opera produce an event as unique as the material at its heart. On a boating trip with seven year old Alice Liddell (pictured), Carroll gifted her with the fantastic story which would soon be indelibly associated with her name - a gift that would re-cast her as a pawn in the fantastic underworld of The Looking Glass. This glass is as much kaleidoscope as mirror, where space and time are refracted, splintering into chaos as rhyming flowers, roaring royals and reluctant foodstuffs wage war on sense and sensibility. While beneath it all stretches the long shadow of this mad world’s creator, Master of Divinity, Lewis Carroll.


"I mean," she said, "that one can’t help growing older."
"One can’t, perhaps," said Humpty Dumpty; "but two can. With proper assistance, you might have left off at seven."
Through the Looking Glass, Lewis Carroll
