Ballet Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland
A huge success since its creation in 2011, Christopher Wheeldon's "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" solidifies his place among the most interesting contemporary choreographers. His skill and originality in engaging and entertaining audiences with a modern narrative ballet make it "a classic of our time," where academic technique blends with contemporary sensibility. An explosion of colors, innovative and sophisticated choreography, imaginative and astonishing costumes and sets – from puppetry to projections – and a score that combines contemporary sound worlds with sweeping melodies gesturing to 19th-century ballet scores. With Alice, we are drawn into a myriad of adventures and encounters; the extraordinary and recognizable characters from Lewis Carroll’s books provide the opportunity for the artists to shine in a variety of styles, even winking at the great 19th-century ballets: how can one resist the Queen of Hearts in a hilarious send-up of the Rose Adagio?
