Show Picks: Cirque Alice reimagines Alice In Wonderland with circus feats and stage magic

Cirque Alice

Mix the whimsical story of Alice’s Adventures In Wonderland with the mesmerising magic of the circus, and you get this charming new family entertainment show featuring an international ensemble of aerialists, acrobats, contortionists, musicians and comedic artists.

From the creators of Cirque Du Soleil’s Mad Apple and the Broadway hit The Illusionists, Cirque Alice makes its Asia premiere in Singapore, having kicked off its run in Australia in April.

Iconic characters from English author Lewis Carroll’s classic children’s adventure novel – from the White Rabbit to the Queen of Hearts to Alice – are reimagined with possibilities only conceivable in a place as wondrous as Wonderland.

Part of the thrill comes from guessing which characters will appear next, and being surprised at how their quirky capabilities are presented in the flesh. Everything gets “curiouser and curiouser”, and therein lies the fun of this eccentric, dream-like production.
