Looking Glass Land
Author(s):
James Devita
This award-winning stage adaptation by renowned playwright James DeVita takes Lewis Carroll's original Through the Looking Glass and literally runs with it. This wild adaptation highlights and improvises on the pure, unadulterated fun of the story. The play still retains some of Carroll's deeper meanings, but what it possesses most of all is a huge helping of unabashed silliness! This delightful romp through Alice's looking glass land retains all of the familiar characters then introduces dozens of new ones: a baseball team, a gospel group called The Responsibilities, a train conductor, a peanut salesman, detectives, a Miss America pageant, star-struck tourists, plastic light saber wielding knights and much more. set requirements are minimal. The play can be performed on a bare stage with suggested set changes accomplished with lighting, or the production can be as huge as your imagination and budget allow. The Children's Book and Play Review declares, "This is an excellent script... delightful, amusing and believable in a land that's not." (Different adaptations of this story are available.)
