What it is

Cirque Alice reimagines Lewis Carroll's adventures through a circus and magic lens, with gravity-defying acrobatics, illusions and dance performed on The Civic stage. The show comes from the producers behind Cirque du Soleil's Mad Apple, The Illusionists and Le Noir.

The cast includes Cirque du Soleil alumni, America's Got Talent: Fantasy League performers and emerging talent from the international circuit — billed as some of the strongest acrobatic, music, dance and magic performers ever assembled for a circus show in New Zealand.

The whole thing unfolds to a soundtrack of newly arranged contemporary takes on well-known classical pieces, and audiences are seated amongst the action on stage, putting families right inside the world of Wonderland rather than looking in from a distance.
