Ballet freely adapted from Lewis Carroll by Adonai Luna
Daydreaming. Who doesn't know it? Alice is fascinated by the world around her. Everything is more fascinating than the actual moment and then suddenly the real world disappears. The people around Alice, such as her sister, the teacher and the shy classmate, are transformed: she curiously follows the white rabbit with the pocket watch, who keeps mumbling: "I'm going to be late!" The bright girl ends up in a strange world, a fantastic world, inhabited by strange characters and full of absurd situations. She takes part in a strange tea party that never seems to end 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 tasks in Wonderland and explores the all-important question: "Who am I?". Whether disembodied Cheshire cat, mad hatter or evil Queen of Hearts - Lewis Carroll's adventure story "Alice in Wonderland" is full of curious ideas and is one of the most popular stories not only in children's rooms.
The story, which the eccentric mathematics lecturer Charles Lutwidge Dodgson (pseudonym: Lewis Carroll) wrote for the entertainment of 10-year-old Alice Liddell and her sisters and published in 1865, takes us into a nonsense world in which the laws of language and logic are suspended and which still inspires everyone, young and old, to dream.
