"Cor blimey, Alice in Wonderland as youve never seen it before!All the favourite characters are still there, but in new, modern guises. A cockney rabbit, a rave-mad Mad Hatter, a hookah-smoking ex-Bollywood actor, Tweedledee and Tweedledum as hipsters, and a would-be grime artist called MC Turtle. Alice in Canning Town is a kaleidoscopic journey through an East End that survived Hitlers blitz and reinvented itself as a leading light in multicultural Britain.Alice falls down an East End rabbit hole... and finds herself invited to lots of parties. The trouble is the totalitarian Ministry of Fun decrees there can only be one party and everyone disagrees what kind it should be. Alice has to try to bring the warring tribes of the Underground together and defy the mighty Ministry and fight for their right to party together.Reconfigured specially for the East End, and performed site-responsively in Canning Town's Arc in the Park, an inclusive adventure playground in Canning Town, it's the fourth in a quartet written by James Kenworth that explores the borough's rich heritage and shows off the talent of its young people.
