Last edit: 1/20/19 ​ ​ Adapted from the novel by Dave Alan Thomas Lyrics by Dave Alan Thomas (“Dreaming” based on a poem by Lewis Carroll) ​ Music by AJ Neaher CAST OF CHARACTERS: All roles will be played by a ten-member ensemble (plus, a pianist) as follows: ALICE A: (MAD HATTER/MARCH HARE/DORMOUSE) B: (WHITE RABBIT) C: (DUCHESS/DUCK) D: (QUEEN OF HEARTS/DODO) E: (GRYPHON/EAGLET/PIGEON/PIG) F: (MOCK TURTLE/EAGLET/BILL THE LIZARD/FISH FOOTMAN) G: (CHESHIRE CAT/MOUSE/GUARD) H: (KNAVE OF HEARTS/FROG FOOTMAN) I: (CATERPILLAR/PAT THE HEDGEHOG/COOK/EXECUTIONER) Narrator* Singer** Pianist*** *Any member that suits the staging best for lines of the the “Narrator” This could be a character that breaks the fourth wall while also playing a character within a scene or it can be one of the players that is not already currently assigned to a character in any given scene. **Although the Mad Hatter is a likely candidate to sing lead on these songs, as he is also the guitarist (or extra musician) they have a “Greek chorus” quality that would lend them to any member of the ensemble, other than Alice, to take part in or to sing lead. That assignment can be at the discretion of the director and music/vocal director, based on the best attributes and abilities of your cast and directorial concept. They will simply be listed as SINGER in the script. ***The pianist is the only member of the show that remains a musician throughout the dream and does not take on other characters.

So she was considering in her own mind (as well as she could, for the hot day made her feel very sleepy and stupid), whether the pleasure of making a daisy-chain would be worth the trouble of getting up and picking the daisies, when suddenly a White Rabbit with pink eyes ran close by her.

  • Chapter One – Down the Rabbit Hole: Alice Is Feeling Bored and Drowsy
    Chapter One – Down the Rabbit Hole: Alice is feeling bored and drowsy while sitting on the riverbank with her older sister, who is reading a book with no pictures or conversations. She then notices a White Rabbit wearing a waistcoat and pocket watch, talking to itself as it runs past. She follows it down a rabbit hole, but suddenly falls a long way to a curious hall with many locked doors of all sizes. She finds a small key to a door too small for her to fit through, but through it she sees an attractive garden. She then discovers a bottle on a table labelled "DRINK ME", the contents of which cause her to shrink too small to reach the key, which she has left on the table. She eats a cake with "EAT ME" written on it in currants as the chapter closes. Chapter Two – The Pool of Tears: Chapter Two opens with Alice growing to such a tremendous size that her head hits the ceiling. Alice is unhappy and, as she cries, her tears flood the hallway. After shrinking down again due to a fan she had picked up, Alice swims through her own tears and meets a Mouse, who is swimming as well. She tries to make small talk with him in elementary French (thinking he may be a French mouse) but her opening gambit "Où est ma chatte?" ("Where is my cat?") offends the mouse and he tries to escape her. Chapter Three – The Caucus Race and a Long Tale: The sea of tears becomes crowded with other animals and birds that have been swept away by the rising waters.

  • Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Literary Nonsense
    University of Iceland School of Humanities Department of English Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and Literary Nonsense A Deconstructive Analysis of Lewis Carroll’s Novel B. A. Essay Lara Ruiz Prados Kt.: 271184-4339 Supervisor: Anna Heiða Pálsdóttir January 2018 ABSTRACT This essay analyzes the main features of the nonsense genre, including its definition, characteristics and, especially, its relevance in the world of literature. Nonsense literature encourages the imagination of the reader, whether child or adult, and, at the same time, it motivates the use of the reader’s wisdom to make it even greater. It is not necessary to find out the intention of the writer while he or she was creating the book. The reader must interpret the text according to his own circumstances. Without any doubt, and according to Jacques Derrida (1930-2004), a critical reading must create a text because “there is nothing outside of the text.” Furthermore, the essay offers a deconstructive analysis of nonsense books by the well- known mathematician Charles Lutwidge Dodgson (1832-1898), who used to sign his novels with his pen name, Lewis Carroll. Particularly, the essay focuses its investigation on Carroll’s books about the unforgettable character of Alice, such as Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland (1865) and Through the Looking-Glass, and What Alice Found There (1871). Indeed, Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland has been one of the world’s most frequently translated works and, after Shakespeare, Carroll is possibly the world’s most quoted author. The famous books about Alice were not expressly written for children; it is needless to say that also adults enjoy Carroll’s unsolved logic problems.

  • Alice in Wonderland Glossary of Terms for Madge Miller’S Adaptation from Lewis Carroll
    Alice in Wonderland Glossary of Terms for Madge Miller’s adaptation from Lewis Carroll Lewis Carroll’s novella Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, on which Madge Miller’s play is based, begins not with Alice sitting on the grass with her sister, but with the following poem, which recalls the “golden afternoon” when Carroll first began telling the story of Alice’s adventures underground to the three Liddell sisters, Lorina (aged 13), Alice (aged 10), and Edith (aged 8). The date was Friday, July 4th, 1862. W.H. Auden once declared that July 4th, 1862 was “as memorable a day in the history of literature as it is in American history.”1 This quote and, indeed, much of the information in this glossary is culled from The Annotated Alice, a volume of Carroll’s work superbly annotated by Martin Gardner, from which I will be citing frequently. The poem which begins Alice’s Adventures reads as follows: All in the golden afternoon Full leisurely we glide; For both our oars, with little skill, By little arms are plied, While little hands make vain pretence Our wanderings to guide. Ah, cruel Three! In such an hour, Beneath such dreamy weather, To beg a tale of breath too weak To stir the tiniest feather! Yet what can one poor voice avail Against three tongues together? Imperious Prima flashes forth Her edict to “begin it”: In gentler tones Secunda hopes “There will be nonsense in it!” While Tertia interrupts the tale Not more than once a minute. Anon, to sudden silence won, In fancy they pursue The dream-child moving through a land Of wonders wild and new, In friendly chat with bird or beast— And half believe it true.

    British Library Courses www.bl.uk/courses Cats in Literature Dates Thursdays 10, 17, 24, 31 January and 7, 14 February 2019 Times 18.00-20.00 Location Harry M Weinrebe Learning Centre Level All levels; please note this course requires some advance reading Class size Maximum 16 participants Course description There are many cats prowling through the fiction, myths and fables, poetry and philosophical essays of Western literature. They might talk or wear human clothes, keep company with witches, symbolise human characteristics, or slip, sleek and graceful, through human life in their own independent way. This course explores cats in Western literature and considers how humans imagine them and write about them. For humans, cats often seem to be duplicitous creatures; they are by turns aloof and affectionate, killer and pet, wilfully independent and self-indulgently home-loving, vicious and docile. Such contrariness has inspired many different ideas about cats, and across history they have been perceived as cherished pets, associates of the devil, symbols of female sensuality and sexual depravity, and anthropomorphic moralisers, and they are, accordingly, both loved and reviled in Western culture. This course traces such imaginings of cats in literature, asking what makes cats so fascinating, appealing and unsettling. H. P. Lovecraft celebrated the “free soul” of cats, and Chateaubriand their “almost ungrateful character”; join us to discover these and many other ways that humans imagine cats in writing. Week One: Cats in myth, metaphor and fable We will discuss cats in myth and fable, including the Egyptian goddess Bast (or Bastet), Aesop’s tales and Rudyard Kipling’s ‘The Cat Who Walked by Himself’ from The Just So Stories, to survey – briefly – the changing history of how we have imagined cats as symbols and as inhabitants of our homes.

    Alice in Wonderland (Poetry in Motion) Study Guide A Ballet Presented by State Street Ballet of Santa Barbara Sponsored by the Valley Performing Arts Council Janet M. Kelly [email protected] 1 Table of Contents 3 Letter to Educators 4-6 Biographical Information about Lewis Carroll 7 The “Real” Alice in Wonderland, Alice Liddel 8-10 Summary of the story “Alice in Wonderland” 11-12 State Street Ballet of Santa Barbara Ballet Information 13-14 “Jabberwocky” Poem and Activities 15-16 Characters in Alice in Wonderland Critical thinking about the symbolism of the characters 17-18 Poetry in Motion 19-20 “White Rabbit” by Jefferson Airplane, Woodstock, 1969 A critical thinking exercise for older students 21 Bibliography 2 Dear Educators, State Street Ballet of Santa Barbara’s version of Alice in Wonderland is one of the most student friendly ballets I’ve witnessed. It is appropriate for very young students who will take the story literally. It is also appropriate for older students who may want to delve into the historical context, innuendo, and figurative nature of Alice in Wonderland. The costumes and choreography tell a wordless story so well that students who have never seen ballet will comprehend what the dancers are trying to convey. I’ve titled this Study Guide as “Poetry in Motion” because I found that movement can tell a story, or help interpret a poem, so the meaning of the writing is understandable for even the youngest student. This study guide has background information, and a variety of points-of-view that can appeal to young students as well as adults.
