The result is an extremely ambitious production that succeeds in transforming a beloved book into a radiant theatrical spectacle.The play combines material from both of Carroll’s Alice books: “Alice??s Adventures in Wonderland” and “Through the Looking Glass.” Director and Executive Producer John T.
