Chantry Dance Company have written a brand new story for our 2019 ballet, inspired by Lewis Carroll's much loved character, Alice.
"Alice – Wonderland Through the Looking Glass" takes place after the events of "Alice in Wonderland" and "Alice Through the Looking Glass".
Alice is now grown-up and an aspiring writer working in a tea-shop. Overworked and underpaid, life seemed much more exciting when she was a child. The Looking Glass has remained in Wonderland as a portal to our world, which the Red Queen accidentally crosses when chasing a croquet ball. Entering this new reality, she develops a dastardly plan to seize power by opening a casino where she creates an Army of Cards. Hatter and his gang of concerned Wonderland characters pursue the Queen and find Alice. Together, they resolve to stop the Queen, but first they must try to make sense (or non-sense!) of our world. Oh, and we forgot to mention, there’s a Jabberwocky lurking in the casino’s basement...
Starring Shannon Parker (Britain’s Got Talent finalist), this fabulous, brand new show is brought to you by the choreographers of the Olivier-nominated production of David Walliam’s ‘Gangsta Granny’. Featuring exceptional dancers, puppetry, acrobatics and more, this is a must-see show for the whole family!

Reviews
"This innovative and beautifully choreographed retelling of the ‘Dracula’ story makes for a truly spellbinding evening that has it all, incredible dancing, superlative acting, wonderful costumes the list goes on. As a frequent visitor to the performances put on by large ballet and dance companies I find myself continually amazed by the sheer brilliance of the productions put out by this relatively small Grantham based company, you must see them!" "The whole story, staging, costumes, choreography and performance was electrifying and we were glued to our seats." |
