Wednesday, May 17, 2023

After a sold-out run in 2021, as well as seven Dora nominations and two wins (Outstanding Performance by an Individual & the Jon Kaplan Audience Choice Award), Alice in Wonderland will make a spectacular return to Guild Park before touring to theatres across the province.

Alice in Wonderland

Based on the literary classic by Lewis Carroll

This production boasts the talents of the Dora-nominated returning ensemble: Cayne Kitagawa, Muhaddisah, and Michael Williamson. Joining the cast are Alicia Plummer as Alice, as well as Autumn Davis and Shayna Burns in multiple roles. Both Alicia and Autumn are Scarborough artists and we're excited to introduce them as part of this diverse vision of Alice in Wonderland.

'After a sold-out run and critical acclaim, I'm delighted to bring back Alice in Wonderland and to give even more of our community a chance to see this spectacular show.' -Tyler J. Seguin

The Play:

When Alice follows a mysterious White Rabbit, she finds herself in Wonderland, a world where the everyday rules are turned upside down. On her journey, she meets strange characters including the Mad Hatter, the Cheshire Cat, and Tweedledum & Tweedledee, but it's her encounter with the Queen of Hearts whose cries of "Off with her head!" make Alice wonder if she'll ever find her way home again.

This fast-paced production brings Wonderland to life in a swirl of sound, colour and imagination. Whether it's trading riddles with the Mock Turtle or battling the fearsome Jabberwock, this show will leave everyone with a smile on their face and curiosity in their hearts!

'Alice in Wonderland is a production made in Scarborough for a Scarborough audience and I'm so pleased to be bringing it back to Guild Park and also sharing it with other communities this summer.’ -Helen Juvonen, Co-Artistic Director
