DETAILS
By popular demand, the season will conclude with a piece that featured at the start of the 2018/2019 season. Namely, this season ends with a revival performance of a highly-acclaimed production based on "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" by the famous British author Lewis CARROLL. This production premiered at the Royal Ballet in the United Kingdom, enabled by a prominent line-up of artists, including British ballet choreographer Christopher WHEELDON, film and television music composer Joby TALBOT, and theatre designer, and multiple Award winner, Bob CROWLEY. It has swept the world and become part of the repertoire of the world's leading ballet companies. In Japan, the only ballet company with permission to perform this piece is the National Ballet of Japan. We trust you will enjoy this wonderfully entertaining and artistic work, now further perfected through repeated performances.

SYNOPSIS
A party is about to begin at a family home in England with daughter Alice. Alice makes a gift of a jam tart to the gardener, Jack, whom she is in love with, but Alice's mother mistakenly thinks he stole it, and fires him. Lewis Carroll, a friend of the family, tries to console the sorrowful Alice, but then a strange thing happens: he turns into a white rabbit!
Following him, Alice falls into a deep hole. She lands in a very unusual passageway, in which she gets lost, and finds herself in a kingdom ruled by the Queen of Hearts, who looks just like her mother. Alice's adventures begin with her attempt to rescue Jack, who is dressed as the Knave of Hearts, and who is suspected of having stolen the Queen's jam tart.
Alice drinks from a bottle that says 'Drink me" and eats a cake that says "Eat me," which makes her alternatively bigger and smaller, and has her swimming in a lake of her own tears. The White Rabbit then lures her into the inner depths of Wonderland, where she meets an odd bunch of characters, including the Duchess, the Cheshire Cat, the Mad Hatter and the March Hare. Alice is reunited with Jack in the Magic Garden, upon which he is captured by the Queen. Jack's trial begins. A succession of strange people and creatures whom Alice has encountered in Wonderland appears, giving evidence against Jack. Alice defends him, but the Queen gets only angrier and angrier, and the whole castle descends into pandemonium.
