This "music hall" version of Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass

Later aired on PBS and titled Alice at the Palace this imaginative rendering of the Lewis

Carroll classic is performed concert-style on a bare stage the actors in modern rehearsal

clothes. Stylistically the music ranges from rock to country/western to calypso as the

outlandish characters of "Wonderland" are reinterpreted in this "story theatre"-type setting.
