Brother Wolf presents
THE MAD HATTER'S TEA PARTY
Based on 'Alice in Wonderland' by Lewis Carroll
Adapted, Produced and Directed by James Hyland
Costumes by A Child Of The Jago
Music by Chris Warner
Puppet by Liz Johnson
"What does it mean to sit between this world and that at the drop of a hat?"
The Hatter and the Hare are stuck. They can't move on.
Trapped by self delusion and memory loss, they remain at 6 o'clock, forever drinking tea. The Hatter embraces it. The Hare rejects it. But who is to blame for this never-ending party? Take a trip down the proverbial rabbit hole with Brother Wolf's groundbreaking adaptation of one of the most beloved stories of all time. Fantastical and utterly bonkers, "The Mad Hatter's Tea Party" is a mind-bending and absurdist new twist on Lewis Carroll's immortal classic. So grab your seat at The Hatter's table and get ready for the weirdest and wildest party this side of Wonderland!
"excellently adapted by James Hyland... entertaining, fun and full of laughs"
