"This hour long show is likely to send children home singing ‘Off With Her Head.’ But don't worry: no one here is condemned to anything but a good time."
~The New York Times 
All the characters of Wonderland are present at Alice's trial.
"It's an ideal show for kids of all ages."

Based on two of the greatest works in children's literature, the show is set in Wonderland's courtroom, where Alice is on trial. The Queen of Hearts is the judge, the Mad Hatter, White Rabbit and Caterpillar are witnesses, and the jury is a deck of cards! Poor Alice must re-live the events of her adventures and try to prove her innocence. Her crime? Growing and changing. To win the case and to save her life, Alice must embrace the truth about who she is, and be willing to wake up from the dream of Wonderland.
The Queen of Hearts challenges Alice to a game of croquet.
