MOMIX: Alice

Wednesday, October 25, 7:30 p.m.


“Hard to picture a more imaginative interpretation” — Broadwayworld.com

“MOMIX’s Alice fills the stage with a marvelously dizzying flow of physical activities and illusions amid expansive, artful projections” — The Wall Street Journal


Perfect for the whole family! Seamlessly blending illusion, acrobatics, magic, and whimsy, MOMIX sends audiences flying down the rabbit hole in Moses Pendleton’s newest creation, Alice, inspired by Lewis Carroll’s classic Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. “I don’t intend to retell the whole Alice story” Pendleton says, “but to use it as a taking off point for invention.”


Join this dazzling company on a mind-bending adventure, as Alice encounters time-honored characters including the undulating Caterpillar, the Lobster Quadrille, frenzied White Rabbits, a mad Queen of Hearts, and a variety of other surprises. Filled with visual splendor and startling creative movement, Alice reveals that nothing in MOMIX’s world is as it seems.

Acclaimed internationally for presenting work of exceptional inventiveness and physical beauty, MOMIX is a company of dancer-illusionists under the direction of choreographer/director Pendleton. The Connecticut-based troupe has been bringing works that combine dance with acrobatics, mime, and theater to stages across the world for more than 40 years.

And join us at tea-time for a party straight out of Wonderland!
