Alice im Wunderland

In the organizer's words:

Ballet by Mirko Mahr based on Lewis Carroll's "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" | Music by Jacques Offenbach, Leroy Anderson and Igor Stravinsky

Duration: 2 1/4 hours | from 8 years

Whether disembodied Cheshire Cat, Mad Hatter or evil Queen of Hearts - Lewis Carroll's adventure story "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" is full of bizarre ideas and has long been one of the most popular tales in children's rooms. Mirko Mahr's choreography is an imaginative take on the timeless children's classic for all children and adults who are still children.

It all begins with the white rabbit: Alice curiously follows him and ends up in a wondrous world full of strange creatures and absurd situations. She attends a bizarre tea party and plays croquet with a pack of playing cards, but the biggest mystery is Alice herself. Sometimes too big, sometimes too small, but always full of courage, she faces the ludicrous trials of Wonderland and explores the all-important question: "Who on earth am I?"

The story, which the eccentric mathematics lecturer Charles Lutwidge Dodgson wrote during a boat trip on the Thames to entertain 10-year-old Alice Liddell and her sisters and published in 1865 under the pseudonym Lewis Carroll, takes its readers into a nonsense world in which the laws of language and logic are suspended and which still inspires not only children to dream today.
