The show... 

Alice's Treasureland Walakazam puts Lewis Carroll's storybook characters into a brand new adventure. The White Rabbit and the Cheshire Cat bring Alice to Wonderland to help find the perfect present for the Queen of Hearts Unbirthday. Along the way, she encounters many of her old friends, including the March Hare, the Mad Hatter, the Dodo, the Pelican, the Caterpillar, Tweedledum and Tweedledee.

The press... 

"As is his wont, writer David Fick simply takes the famed Lewis Carroll eccentrics and fashions his own tale around them.... The words, "be original", occur in the show’s opening number and become a kind of portent of things to come, for the Pieterse production (she was also responsible for the outstanding, colourful costuming) is highly innovative in every way.... Mark up another huge holiday success for Stageworld and the Boardwalk." Bob Eveleigh, The Herald.
