In the midst of the 1941 London Blitz during World War II, teenager Alice Spencer and her best friend Alfred Hallam seek refuge in an underground tube station bunker, where civilians huddle together amid the chaos of air raids. Alfred, suffering from tuberculosis, is quarantined in a restricted ward, leaving Alice desperate to see him. To comfort him during a visit, Alice pulls out their shared favorite book, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, but the strict Red Cross Nurse confiscates and tears it as punishment for Alice's rule-breaking. Undeterred, Alice declares she knows the story by heart and begins reciting it aloud, drawing the bunker residents into the narrative. As bombs fall overhead, the group transforms into characters from the book, with Alfred reluctantly becoming the frantic White Rabbit, urging Alice to follow him "down the hole" into Wonderland to escape their grim reality.

All performances are at the Mraz Center for the Performing Arts, 600 State Highway 13, in Burnsville (located at Burnsville High School). 

*Performances are suitable for ages Middle School and older.*
