A
series of unexplained murders have been happening in Wonderland,
with the White Rabbit next on the list. Everyone is a suspect,
and no-one is quite sure why all hell has broken loose, or when
the killings will stop; except of course the famed local madman,
for whom Time is always of the essence.
Enter
young Alice. Confused and troubled, she finds herself hopelessly
in the midst of a plot where she is hailed as the saviour of the
whole Wonderland community. The Knights contradict themselves,
the Cheshire Cat talks in riddles, the Duchess lovingly mistreats
her fake baby doll, the Cook is vague and the Fawn martyrs himself
to the cause. The only one to make sense of any thing is Hatter.
Deemed as Mad by those who don't know the truth, he heIps Alice
see her own strength. Thus, in an effort to prove her worth -
and with little choice otherwise - she embarks on a quest to reach
the mysterious ‘Eighth Square’, travelling through
the wood-with-no-name, to avenge the murders’, 'kill Time',
regain her innocence and find herself; all at once. The question
is...can she, when all she really longs for is the childhood she
never knew?R

J Macpherson & Matthew Fleming’s contemporary rock opera
puts a new twist on a classic tale, where the only thing to do
is ‘Think yourself free...’
