The show's stars, Matt Lee and Verity Hunt-Ballard, both won acting prizes. The Walt Disney production also took the coveted best musical award. Geoffrey Rush and Cate Blanchett each won a prize and Andrew Lloyd Webber's Love Never Dies won three. The awards took place at the Sydney Opera House on Monday night.

  • WONDERLAND': Kate Shindle (Center) As the Mad Hatter & the Ensemble in Wonderland
    DARK LADY IN 'WONDERLAND': Kate Shindle (center) as the Mad Hatter & the ensemble in Wonderland. Photo: Michal Daniel Theater Review Mind-numbing malice in Wonderland WONDERLAND Book by Gregory Boyd and Jack Murphy Lyrics by Jack Murphy Music by Frank Wildhorn Choreography by Marguerite Derricks Directed by Gregory Boyd. Marquis Theatre 1535 Broadway at 46th Street (877‐250‐2929), www.wonderlandonbroadway.com By Scott Harrah Have your kids been behaving badly? Punish them by taking them to this mind‐numbing mess of a Broadway musical. The White Rabbit has laid one big, stinking rotten egg of a show just in time for Easter, loosely based on Lewis Carroll’s classic children’s book, Alice in Wonderland. It is a shame indeed because so much could be done to make an imaginative, innovative musical adaptation of this timeless kid's story, but book writers Gregory Boyd and Jack Murphy and Broadway veteran composer Frank Wildhorn (of Jekyll & Hyde fame) fail on so many levels. The result is an excruciatingly painful, cringe‐inducing show that makes one’s jaw drop in stultifying amazement by how ill conceived the story is from beginning to end. We know we are in trouble in the show’s opener when grown‐up Alice (Janet Dacal, last seen on Broadway's In The Heights) appears on stage sporting dark leggings, a smock top with 1980s‐ style cinch belt and boots, and a frizzy hairstyle that makes her resemble pop‐rocker Pat Benatar in her MTV heyday. There is no doubt that Ms. Dacal is a gifted actor and great singer, but the material she is given with here wastes her talents.
