The show is inspired by the two Lewis Carroll stories ‘Alice's Adventures in Wonderland’ and ‘Beyond

the Looking Glass’. The great undisputed protagonist is the word.

As in a dream, stories, characters, landscapes follow one another without a break.

A bizarre upside-down world that reveals the absurdities and inconsistencies of adult life. A journey

through nonsense and paradoxes, a plunge into a dreamlike landscape of extremely unreal situations.

Going beyond the schemes of norms and conventions, this show is a journey into a reality far from

everyday life, absurd and apparently meaningless, and for this reason, disorienting, mysterious and

initially ‘uncomfortable’ but certainly very fascinating.

On stage, an actress, alone, like a motionless doll, all of a sudden a sound and as if someone had

operated a gear, the doll comes to life; she wears a costume - set design that will transform and make

the bizarre

characters of this incredible adventure appear and disappear, a whirlwind of colours, sounds, voices.

Then, as if by magic, everything ends as it began
