“There is a place. Like no place on Earth. A land full of Wonder, Mystery and Danger” - Lewis Carroll

 

150 years after Carroll’s created a land of madness and mayhem Quintessence Theatre invite you celebrate this Wonderland with them. Only this time it’s not just Alice’s adventure…it’s yours…

Will you follow the White Rabbit?

​

Around the stunning grounds of Anaverna House, Ravensdale, tumble down the rabbit hole and discover Wonderland in all its nonsensical glory: come race in a manic Caucaus, recline with a psychedelic caterpillar, dodge the claws of the Cheshire Cat, take tea with the Maddest of all Hatters, all whilst trying to avoid the Queen of Hearts and her love of chopping off heads.

Stylised in both performance and design with a multi-rolling ensemble cast Quintessence used dazzling physical theatre techniques and interactive audience participation games to provide a slick visual feast with a healthy dose of silliness. This promenade interactive outdoor take on Lewis Carroll’s classic is suitable for all ages.
