Photo Flash: Des Moines Playhouse Opens ALICE IN WONDERLAND Today

When Alice Chases a White Rabbit with a pocket watch, she suddenly finds herself in a magical place called "Wonderland." Check out the production photos from DM Playhouse below!

Wonderland is inhabited by a curious collection of characters. There's the mysterious grinning Cheshire Cat, who appears and disappears suddenly. There are the jabbering twins, Tweedle Dum and Tweedle Dee, who attempt to teach Alice manners. A Mad Hatter hosts an un-birthday tea party that is more like a game of musical chairs. And then there is the ruler of Wonderland, the Queen of Hearts, whose royal cardsmen are painting the white roses red.

Disney's Alice in Wonderland Jr. is full of classic songs from the original film, including "I'm Late" and "The Un-birthday Song," as well as other great Disney tunes, like "Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah."

The show runs from today, November 8 to December 1st, Fridays (7 PM), Saturdays (1 PM), and Sundays (1 and 4 PM, except December 1st). School Matinees are Noon on Monday, Nov. 25, 2013 and 9:30 AM on Tuesday, Nov. 26, 2013. Tickets are $17 for Adults and Seniors, $13 for Students (birth through college). For more information, visit the Des Moines Playhouse Website and tickets can be bought online.
