Starring Boston native Principal dancer Sarah Lamb in the role of Alice, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland features a host of familiar characters including the gardeners' boy, Federico Bonelli, who later becomes her Knaves of Hearts with a blissful pas de deux, the ferocious Queen of Hearts, the jittery White Rabbit and the quirky tap-dancing Mad Hatter. This exuberant ballet also features Washington, D.C. Soloist dancer Eric Underwood in the role of the Caterpillar.

The familiar story is reimagined with quirky designs by Bob Crowley as we follow Alice into Wonderland across a lake of tears, playing croquet with flamingos and hedgehogs and attending a deranged tea party. Drawing upon a wealth of theatrical effects, projection and puppetry are used to visualize the grinning Cheshire Cat and sinuous Caterpillar with his 16 legs of ballet dancers en pointe creating a mesmerizing world of enchantment.
