27 August – 18 September
A Queen’s Theatre, Hornchurch co-production with Chicken Shed Theatre Company
Alice on the Underground
book and lyrics by Chris Bond and Paula Rees
music by Jo Collins and David Carey

A runaway musical with a 21st century take on the
classic story of Alice in Wonderland.

This fantastic new musical follows Alice’s journey as she runs away from her dysfunctional family and a bleak life on a London council estate. Escaping underground you never know who you are going to meet on the tube… a busking white rabbit, a carriage full of gospel-singing commuters or the Queen of Hearts herself!
