Summary |
Welcome to Lewis Carroll's Alice In Wonderland - a vibrant land where forwards is backwards, up is down and anything imaginable is possible. When young Alice (Tina Majorino, Grey's Anatomy) chases the White Rabbit down his rabbit-hole her life is thrust into a whirlwind of surprises as she ventures forth into one of the most fantastical tales of all time. Her journey into Wonderland leads Alice to encounter a multitude of intriguing characters and creatures - including the delightful Cheshire Cat (Whoopi Goldberg), the rather rotund Tweedledum (Robbie Coltrane) and Tweedledee (George Wendt), a very rude caterpillar (Ben Kingsley), a Mock Turtle (Gene Wilder) and a Walrus (Peter Ustinov). From the absurd experiences at the Mad Hatter's (Martin Short) tea party to her wild croquet game with the Queen Of Hearts (Miranda Richardson), Alice's remarkable journey is filled with visual delights and clever word-play, destined to linger in the imagination long after the spinning has stopped. Winner of four Primetime Emmy Awards, Alice In Wonderlandis a captivating and comprehensive adaptation of Lewis Carroll's timeless classic. |
