Tokyo International Players Present ALICE, Now thru Dec 9

Tokyo International Players present "Alice" by Laura Wade and based on the book by Lewis Carroll and directed by Liam Shea, tonight, December 6-9, 2012 at the Ebisu Echo Theatre.

When Alice's parents decided to move to Tokyo, she could never have imagined how bored and isolated she would be. However one day during a particularly boring Japanese lesson a white rabbit takes Alice by the hand and leads her into a fun world she didn't see before. A world where Sumo wrestlers recite poetry, expat wives keep pigs for babies, and having a cup of tea is like an assault course. Take a trip with Alice this Winter, have fun whilst she discovers that home is where the heart is.

This original interpretation of the children's classic by Lewis Carroll boasts an extraordinary group of Tokyo talent: Joanne Wong as Alice, Rika Wakasugi as the Red Queen, Andrew Wakatsugi-Robinson as the Mad Hatter, Shinako Wakatsugi-Robinson as the White Rabbit, Ann Jenkins, and many more.
