Alice in Wonderland

 
Nath A Review by Nath A 2 Published: 6 Aug 2024 theSpace @ Niddry St Show Dates: 2 Aug 2024-11 Aug 2024

Nardone’s Academy of Performing Arts has brought its production of Alice in Wonderland to theSpace’s thrust stage in the Upper Theatre this year. Unfortunately though, much of this performance was directed towards one side of the audience, leaving the rest unable to fully enjoy the show.

There is potential

Many actors seemed to struggle with the choreography, affecting their breathing, and, although the show is aimed at children, the emotions portrayed by most felt somewhat unconvincing. However, the costumes, especially the Cheshire Cat, stood out positively.

While there is potential, I fear this production may need further refinement to meet the standards of other children's shows at the Fringe.

The Blurb:

This brand-new musical version of the timeless classic takes you down the rabbit hole with the ever-curious Alice to a land of zany adventures where nothing is as it seems. The White Rabbit, Tweedle-Dee and Tweedle-Dum, the Mad Hatter, the Caterpillar, the Mock Turtle, the mysterious Cheshire Cat, the Queen of Hearts and all your favourites from Lewis Carroll’s beloved books make this a magical, tuneful and over-the-top entertaining musical for the whole family!
