Alice in Wonderland
Connecticut Ballet is bringing ALICE to The Palace! Alice in Wonderland, the beloved Lewis Carroll children’s novel, comes to life as a ballet choreographed by Artistic Director Brett Raphael on Saturday, May 18 at 2:00pm at The Palace in Stamford.
Connecticut Ballet soloist Carla Hernandez falls down the rabbit hole as the title character in this enchanting new production. Also joining the cast will be two veteran musical theatre performers, Kelly Sheehan and Chris McNiff, performing as Tweedledee and Tweedledum. Both Sheehan and McNiff have appeared together in the national tour of Irving Berlin’s White Christmas and Sheehan played the role of Lorraine Flemming in 42nd Street on Broadway (dir. Randy Skinner). They are both making their debut with Connecticut Ballet, dancing a newly-choreographed tap vignette as part of Alice’s voyage through Wonderland.
Published in 1865 by Oxford University professor Lewis Carroll, Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland is the riotous story of a young girl who falls down a rabbit hole into a topsy-turvy world populated by fantastical characters. Connecticut Ballet’s production will feature such beloved characters as the White Rabbit, the Mad Hatter, the Queen of Hearts, the Cheshire Cat, a giant caterpillar, and that tap-dancing twosome: Tweedlee and Tweedledum. Raphael states, “I am enjoying weaving the imaginative storyline. There are parts that are really nonsensical and frivolous and then some that are very poetic.”
A special feature is a meet-and-greet with the principal dancers in the lobby following the performance. Tickets for the May 18 performance are available here.
