Fall down the rabbit hole at The Stranahan Tuesday, May 14 at 7:30pm with MOXIM’s new production Alice, inspired by the Lewis Caroll classic, Alice in Wonderland.
MOXIM is a company of dancer-illusionists, directed by Moses Pendleton. The company is known for “presenting work of exceptional inventiveness and physical beauty,” a spokesperson for The American Theatre Guild said in a statement. The dancers tell enchanting and mind-bending stories using nothing but light, shadow, props and their bodies.
The production will transport you into the alternate reality of Wonderland, with many of the fan-favorite characters including the Caterpillar, White Rabbits and the Queen of Hearts.
“I don’t intend to retell the whole Alice story,” Pendleton said in a statement. “But to use it as a taking off point for invention. I’m curious to see what will emerge, and I’m getting curiouser and curiouser the more I learn about Lewis Carroll, who like me was a devoted photographer.”
