when: 13 Jul 2025 | venue: Santa Monica Playhouse | cost: $15.00-$17.50 | address: 1211 4th Street, Santa Monica 90401“STRONGLY RECOMMENDED! A splendid children’s theatrical experience with a terrific new twist. The quality of performance is so pure and bright that children are fascinated throughout, all the while being exposed to superior theater that does not pander to their young age. The music and lyrics by Evelyn Rudie are the magic of the show. They provide a style and energy that keeps the children glued to the action.” L.A. PARENT.
Kids 2 to 102 join Alice as she accepts an invitation from the Queen of Hearts to return to the Wonderland of her youth. Will Alice prevail, or are the Cards stacked against her? Will the Queen suffer a heart attack? Lovely audience participation throughout the production helps Alice set a topsy-turvy Wonderland aright in this zany musical comedy.
“A winning blend of vaudeville, English pantomime and music hall.” Drama-logue.
The internationally acclaimed Family Theatre musical comedy, performed on three continents over the past 45 years is presented by renowned Actors’ Repertory Theatre, and features Holly Gibson, Amanda Hornberger, Isabel Lindley, J.T. Melaragno, Michala Peltz, Megan Wright with Cydne Moore, Joseph Perez and Graham Silbert.
“Wonderful! This is genuine Lewis Carroll, updated with witty alliterations and puns. Skillful direction and humorous extractions from the original Alice gives everyone something to enjoy. Evelyn Rudie and Chris DeCarlo, ‘parents’ of the repertory company, are to be applauded for keeping children’s theatre alive and well.” PONY RIDE
Gorgeous costumes by award-winning designer Ashley Hayes, lilting musical numbers and a charmingly bedecked rose garden enhance the "clever clowning and buoyant silliness" (L.A. Times) of this audience favorite crowd-pleaser. Written and directed by Evelyn Rudie and Chris DeCarlo.
