Description

Step into a world of fantasy, make-believe, and play, and join little Alice in search of her lost kitten. Follow her as she falls down the rabbit hole and enters a curious land of puzzles, talking flowers, and a jumble of characters from Lewis Carroll’s stories. Each of Alice’s encounters—some silly, some strange, and some a little spooky—challenges her sense of reality and her sense of self. Will Alice find her kitten? Will anyone lend a hand? And how do you navigate a place where logic takes a nap? Join Alice on her topsy-turvy adventure and see where the dream leads!

Puppeteers use a variety of puppet types, including tabletop, figure, glove, and rod puppets. The sets and most of the puppets were created by Jacek Zuzanski. 

Dream Tale Puppets, founded in 2003 and led by Jacek Zuzanski, is a touring ensemble of artists living on Cape Cod and beyond. The theatre offers high-quality original puppetry performances for children and families, offers workshops and classes, and trains actors-puppeteers.
