Oklahoma City Ballet Presents ALICE (in wonderland)

Oklahoma City Ballet Presents ALICE (in wonderland)

Oklahoma City, OK: Tickets are now on sale for ALICE (in wonderland)! Come see Oklahoma City Ballet in this delightful and engaging production that is perfect for the whole family. Fall down the rabbit hole into the fantasy world first imagined by Lewis Carroll 150 years ago with ALICE (in wonderland).

Septime Webre’s choreography and Matthew Pierce’s musical score bring Carroll’s classic hurtling into the 21st century with sensational costumes, from a Cirque Du Soleil costume designer, and an ingenious set to match.

Robert Mills, Oklahoma City Ballet Artistic Director, is thrilled about the Oklahoma debut of ALICE (in wonderland) and excited to showcase Webre’s work.

“I have wanted to bring Septime’s version of Alice (in Wonderland) to Oklahoma since its debut at the Kennedy Center in 2012,” said Mills.

“The production is definitely a wild ride, and has been a proven success with many ballet companies around the country and most recently in Hong Kong.  I am excited we are giving it it’s Oklahoma premiere.”

This stylish production is an incredible spectacle of dance, theater, and puppetry, and also features numerous students from the Oklahoma City Ballet Yvonne Chouteau School.

ALICE (in wonderland) runs October 26-28 at Civic Center Music Hall with accompaniment by the Oklahoma City Philharmonic. A Saturday matinee performance has just been added, providing another opportunity to view the show.

The Oklahoma debut is expected to sell out, so be sure to get your tickets before they are gone. Tickets can be purchased online at www.okcballet.org/performance/alice-in-wonderlandor by calling our Box Office at (405) 848-TOES.
