Ă propos de ce livre
The White Rabbit is late for the Duchess. The Cheshire Cat won't stop grinning. And the Hatter is, well, mad. In the middle of it all is Alice, a young girl with a vivid imagination and a family life that's less than perfect. In this new adaptation by renowned playwright and Sheffield native, Laura Wade, you can follow Alice as she escapes her bedroom to find adventure in a topsy-turvy world. Based on Lewis Carroll's classic tale, Wade's adaptation breathes fresh life into a much-loved story about rabbit holes, pocket watches and talking caterpillars.

ACT TWO
The Queenâs Croquet Ground. A number of young WONDERLANDERS are playing croquet on the lawn, watched by two COMMENTATORS in their own mobile commentary box.
ALICE sits at the edge of the lawn, with the DUCHESS next to her.
COMMENTATOR 1: And that cracking shot concludes our warm-up match from the Junior Wonderlanders Croquet League.
COMMENTATOR 2: Stars of the future there...
COMMENTATOR 1: Yes indeed. And on their way to the podium now for the medals presentation.
COMMENTATOR 2: Who knows, one day these youngsters may find themselves being presented with a medal by the queen herself.
COMMENTATOR 1: What a proud day that would be.
DUCHESS: Isnât it exciting, dolly?
ALICE: What?
DUCHESS: To be here. Today.
ALICE: I um â I donât quite know how I got here.
DUCHESS: Iâm like that, I forget things all the time.
ALICE: I mean I was just talking to that scary man and now Iâm â Now Iâm here.
Sorry, where am I exactly?
DUCHESS: Silly dolly. Youâre at the queenâs croquet ground.
ALICE: The queen of Hearts?
DUCHESS: Arenât you more excited than youâve ever been? A game of croquet and then tea.
ALICE: I donât really know anything about croquet.
DUCHESS: Gosh dolly, donât say that anywhere near her majesty â the queenâs mad for croquet.
ALICE: Is the queen here?
DUCHESS: Sheâll be here any minute, for the big match. Do you really mean to tell me youâve never played croquet?
ALICE: Itâs a bit old-fashioned where I come from.
DUCHESS: Darling dolly, come over here and let me show you.
They go towards a rack of flamingos and a bucket of hedgehogs.
ALICE: Um, look, thereâs something I should tell you.
DUCHESS: Donât tell me â you think Iâm so much calmer since you last saw me, my skinâs looking so much better...
ALICE: Yeah, itâs just â You know the baby?
DUCHESS: The little pig.
ALICE: Yes.
The DUCHESS looks at a number of flamingos.
DUCHESS: Youâll need one of these.
ALICE: Thing is, it turned out it was actually a pig.
DUCHESS: Yes, I know. Horrid little thing, caterwauling all the â
Here you are â this might be the right size.
The DUCHESS hands ALICE the flamingo. ALICE doesnât know how to hold it.
ALICE: The thing is, um, Iâm terribly sorry, but â
DUCHESS: No, thatâs too short.
ALICE: Iâm everso sorry but Iâm afraid it ran away.
DUCHESS: What about this one?
The DUCHESS hands her another flamingo.
What ran away?
ALICE: The pig. The pigbaby. Iâm really sorry. It just ran off, so â
DUCHESS: Oh donât worry about that, dolly. Getting that baby off my hands was the best thing I ever did â I canât tell you how much better I feel â calmer, more adjusted, freer, less tense â so much less tense, I was carrying all this tension in my neck, in my shoulders â
No dolly, youâre holding it the wrong way up.
ALICE: Um, OK.
DUCHESS: And you must greet it nicely.
ALICE: Sorry?
DUCHESS: Say hello.
ALICE: Um, hello. Flamingo.
FLAMINGO: Mr Flamingo if you donât mind.
DUCHESS: Youâve to be very polite or it wonât hit when you want it to.
ALICE: Um, sorry. Mr Flamingo.
FLAMINGO: Thatâs better.
DUCHESS: Bad-tempered things, flamingos, but you have to humour them.
FLAMINGO: I heard that.
DUCHESS: Isnât this fun? Now, you need a hedgehog as well.
Thatâs the other good thing about losing the silly baby â now the queen will surely have me back. As soon as she sees me sheâll â You donât think sheâs only got me here to make up the numbers or something, do you?
ALICE: Iâm sure not.
The DUCHESS has picked a hedgehog for ALICE.
DUCHESS: Hereâs a good beginnerâs one, try this. Just give it a little tap with the flamingo.
ALICE: Isnât that cruel?
DUCHESS: No no, they love it.
HEDGEHOG: Hello, my nameâs Roger and Iâm going to be your hedgehog for today â any questions at all, donât hesitate to ask.
Now feel free to hit me as hard as you like â I am a professional. Though I would ask you please to avoid the facial area as I need that for my modelling contracts.
ALICE: Modelling?
HEDGEHOG: Iâm wasted here, quite frankly.
DUCHESS: Go on, dolly â have a go.
HEDGEHOG: So I roll up like this and then you hit me.
ALICE: With the flamingo.
FLAMINGO: Mr Flamingo.
HEDGEHOG: And then you try to get me through that little arch there, OK.
ALICE has a go. The HEDGEHOG yelps each time heâs hit.
Eeep! Thank you.
DUCHESS: Very good. Keep going.
You do think the queen will receive me today, donât you? Just have to make sure I pick the right moment â
A fanfare.
Oh doll...
