PROLOGUE
Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe;
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgabe.
Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
The frumious Bandersnatch!
Act I Scene 1: Alices Home
ALICE sits on the floor playing with her kitten
Alice: Kitty, can you play chess? Now dont smile, my dear, Im asking it seriously. Because
when we were playing just now, you watched just as if you understood it; and when I said
Check! you purred! Kitty dear, lets pretend that youre the Red Queen! Do you
know, I think if you sat up and folded your arms, youd look exactly like her. (She goes
to the looking-glass) Ill just hold you up to the looking glass and you can see how sulky
you are! How, if youll only attend, Kitty, Ill tell you all my ideas about Looking-glass
House. First, theres the room you can see through the glassthats just the same as our
drawing-room, only the things go the other way. Oh, Kitty, how nice it would be if we
could only get into the Looking-glass House! Im sure it has, oh, such beautiful things in
it! (ALICE goes through the looking-glass and sees the WHITE RABBIT)
Pg. 1
The White Rabbit: Oh, my ears and whiskers, how late its getting! Oh, dear, oh, dear, I shall
be too late!
Alice: Kitty, did you see that? It was a white rabbit! Wait for me Mr. Rabbit! Wait for me!
* DANCE
ALICE falls down the rabbit-hole surrounded by odd visions as we watch her change
sizes once or twice.

Alice: (to herself) One side of what? The other side of what?
Caterpillar: Of the mushroom. (exiting)
Alice: (ALICE takes two pieces from the mushroom) Now which is which?
*DANCE
ALICE eats a piece of the Mushroom and grows as we tranistion to the exterior of the
Duchesss House.
Act I Scene 4: The Duchess House
Fish-Footman: For the Duchess. An invitation from the Queen to play croquet.
Frog-Footman: From the Queen. An invitation for the Duchess to play croquet. (They bow
and their hair become tangled. FISH-FOOTMAN exits and ALICE goes up to the door
and knocks) Theres no sort of use in knocking, and that for two reasons. First, because
Im on the same side of the door as you are; secondly, because theyre making such a
noise inside no one could possibly hear you.
Alice: Please then, how am I to get it?
Frog-Footman: There might be some sense in your knocking if we had the door between us.
For instance, if you were inside you might knock and I could let you out, you know.
Alice: How am I to get it?
Frog-Footman: I shall sit here until tomorrow. (COOK opens the door, throws a plate, and
slams it shut) Or next day maybe.
Alice: But how am I to get in?
Frog-Footman: Are you to get in at all? Thats the first question, you know.
Alice: Its really dreadful the way these creatures argue. Its enough to drive one crazy!
(COOK throws the CHESHIRE CAT out)
Frog-Footman: I shall sit here on and off for days and days.
Alice: But what am I to do?
Frog-Footman: Anything you like. Of course I could go get a spare door. And you could
practice going out.
Alice: But I want to go in.
Pg. 4
Frog-Footman: I will sit here for days on end until Im asked back by popular demand.
Alice: Oh, theres no use in talking to him. Hes perfectly idiotic!
Act I Scene 5: The Duchess Kitchen
ALICE enters the house as it opens to reveal the chaos of the interior
Cook: More pepper!
Alice: Theres certainly too much pepper in that soup. (She sneezes) Please, would you tell me
why your car grins like that?
Duchess: Its a Cheshire Car and thats why. Pig!
Alice: I didnt know that Cheshire Cars always grinned. In fact, I didnt know that cats could
grin at all.
Duchess: They all can and most of em do.
Alice: I dont know of any that do.
Duchess: You dont know much, and thats a fact. (COOK takes baby and beats it)
Alice: Oh, please mind what youre doing. Oh, there goes his precious nose!
Duchess: If everybody minded their own business the world would go around a deal faster than
it does.
Alice: Which would not be an advantage. Just think what work it would make with the day and
the night. You see, the earth takes twenty-four hours to turn round on its axis
Duchess: Talking of axesChop off her head!
Alice: Twenty-four hours, I think, or is it twelve?
Duchess: Oh, dont bother me! I never could abide figures. (The DUCHESS takes the baby and
violently sings to it)
Speak roughly to you little boy
And beat him when he sneezes.
He only does it to annoy
Because he knows it teases.
I speak severely to my boy
I beat him when he sneezes;
For he can thoroughly enjoy
Pg. 5
Humpty Dumpty: Dont stand chattering to yourself like that, but tell me your name and your
business.
Alice: My name is Alice, but
Humpty Dumpty: Its a stupid name enough! (He laughs) What does it mean?
Alice: Must a name mean something?
Humpty Dumpty: Of course it must: my name means the shape I amand a good, handsome
shape it is, too. With a name like yours, you might be any shape, almost.
Alice: Why do you sit out here all alone?
Pg. 6
Humpty Dumpty: Why, because theres nobody with me! Did you think I didnt know the
answer to that? Ask another.
Alice: Dont you think youd be safer down on the ground? That wall is so very narrow!
Humpty Dumpty: That tremendously easy riddles you ask! Of course I dont think so. Why, if
ever I did fall offwhich theres no chance ofbut if I didif I did fall, the Kind has
promised me---you didnt think I was going to say that, did you? The King has promised
me with his very own mouthtoto
Alice: To send all his horses all his men.
Humpty Dumpty: (Gasp) Youve been listening at doorsand behind treesand down
chimneysor you couldnt have known it.
Alice: I havent, indeed! Its in a book. (Changing the subject) What a beautiful belt youve
got on! At lease, a beautiful cravat I should have saidno, a belt, I meanI beg your
pardon! (Aside) If only I knew which was neck, and which was waist!
Humpty Dumpty: Its a most provoking thing when a person doesnt know a cravat from a
belt!
Alice: (in a humble tone) I know its very ignorant of me.
Humpty Dumpty: Its a cravat, child, and beautiful on as you say. Its a present from the
White King and Queen.
Alice: Is it really?
Humpty Dumpty: They gave it me, they gave it mefor an un-birthday present.
Alice: (puzzled) I beg your pardon?
Humpty Dumpty: Im not offended.
Alice: I mean, what is and un-birthday present?
Humpty Dumpty: A present given when it isnt your birthday, of course.
Alice: I like birthday presents best.
Humpty Dumpty: You dont know what youre talking about. How many days are there in a
year?
Alice: Three hundred and sixty-five.
Humpty Dumpty: And how many birthdays have you?
Alice: One.
Humpty Dumpty: And if you take one from three hundred and sixty-five, what remains?
Alice: Three hundred and sixty-four, of course.
Pg. 7
Humpty Dumpty: Ah hah! And that shows that there are three hundred and sixty-four days
when you might get un-birthday presents. And only one for birthday present, you know.
Theres glory for you!
Alice: I dont know what you man by glory.
Humpty Dumpty: (getting angry) Of course you donttill I tell you. (trying to keep calm) I
meant theres a nice knock-down argument for you!
Alice: But glory doesnt mean a nice knock-down argument.
Humpty Dumpty: (getting angry again) When I use a word, it means just what I choose it to
meanneither more nor less.
Alice: The question is, whether you can make words mean so many different things.
Humpty Dumpty: (twice as angry) The question is which is to be master, thats all. (really
angry) Hrumph! Impenetrability! Thats what I say! (knocked off balance by his own
temper) Whoa! (on the brink of disaster) Whoa! (falling) Whoa!!!
*DANCE
(HUMPTY DUMPTY falls off and several cards pick him up)
Act I Scene 7: The Cheshire Cat
Cheshire Cat: Prrrraioweaiouw.
Alice: Cheshire Puss, would you tell me, please, which way I ought to walk from here?
Cheshire Cat: That depends a good deal on where you want to get to.
Alice: I dont much care where
Cheshire Cat: Then it doesnt matter which way you walk.
Alice: So long as I get somewhere.
Cheshire Cat: Oh, youre sure to do that if you only walk long enough.
Alice: What sort of people live about here?
Cheshire Cat: To the right lives a Hatter. To the left lives a March Hare. Visit either you like.
Theyre both mad.
Alice: But I dont want to go among mad people.
Cheshire Cat: You cant help that. Were all mad here. Im mad. Youre mad.
Alice: How do you know that Im mad?
Pg. 8
Cheshire Cat: You must be or you wouldnt have come here. Do you play croquet with the
Queen today?
Alice: I should like it very much but I havent been invited yet.
Cheshire Cat: Youll see me there. (With a flash pot explosion, the CAT vanishes and then
reappears) By-the-bye, what became of the baby? Id nearly forgotten to ask.
Alice: It turned into a pig.
Cheshire Cat: I thought it would. (With a flash pot explosion, the CAT vanishes again and then
reappears) Did you say pig or fig?
Alice: I said pig. And I wish you wouldnt keep appearing and vanishing so suddenly: you
make one quite giddy.
Cheshire Cat: All right. (It vanishes slowly with its mouth last)
Alice: Well, Ive often seen a cat without a grin, but a grin without a cat! Its the most curious
thing I ever saw in all my life! Ive seen Hatters before. The March Hare will be much
the most interesting, and perhaps as this is May, it won be raving madat least not as
mad as it was in March.
Act I Scene 8: The Mad Tea Party
A great table is laid out set for a very large tea party
March Hare & Mad Hatter: No roomno room!
Alice: Theres plenty of room!
March Hare: Have some wine.
Alice: I dont see any wine.
March Hare: There isnt any.
Alice: Then it wasnt very civil of you to offer it.
March Hare: It wasnt very civil of you to sit down without being invited.
Alice: I didnt know it was your table. Its laid for a great many more than three.
Mad Hatter: Your hair wants cutting.
Alice: You should learn not to make personal remarks. Its very rude.
Mad Hatter: Why is a raven like a writing desk?
Alice: I believe I can guess that!
Pg. 9
Mad Hatter: Do you mean you think you could find out the answer to it?
Alice: Exactly so.
March Hare: Then why dont you say what you mean?
Alice: I do. At leastat least I mean what I say. Thats the same thing, you know.
Mad Hatter: Not the same thing a bit. Why, you might just as well say that I see what I eat
is the same thing as I eat what I see.
March Hare: You might just as well say that I like what I get is the same thing as I get what
I like.
Dormouse: (sleepily) You might just as well say that I breather when I sleep is the same
thing as I sleep when I breathe.
Mad Hatter: It is the same thing with you. (Bonks DORMOUSE, leaps frog over it, and then
looks at his watch) What day of the month is it?
Alice: The fourth.
Mad Hatter: Two days wrong! I told you butter wouldnt suit the works.
March Hare: It was the best butter.
Mad Hatter: Yes, but some crumbs must have got in as well. You should not have put it in
with the bread knife.
March Hare: It was the best butter.
Alice: What a funny watch! It tells the days of the month and doesnt tell what oclock it its.
Mad Hatter: Why should it? Does your watch tell what year it is?
Alice: Of course not. But thats because it stays the same year for such a long time together.
Mad Hatter: Which is just the case with mine.
Alice: I dont quite understand you.
Mad Hatter: The Dormouse is asleep again. (He and the MARCH HARE leap frog over each
other to it)
March Hare and Mad Hatter: Wake up, Dormouse!
Dormouse: Of course, of course. Just what I was going to remark myself.
Mad Hatter: (to ALICE) Have you guessed the riddle yet?
Alice: No. I give up. Whats the answer?
Mad Hatter: I havent the slightest idea.
March Hare: Nor I.
Pg. 10
Alice: I think you might do something better with the time than wasting it in asking riddles that
have no answers.
Mad Hatter: If you knew time as well as I do, you wouldnt talk about wasting it, its him.
Alice: I dont know what you mean.
Mad Hatter: (Spins ALICE like a watch) Of course you dont. I daresay you never even spoke
to Time.
Alice: perhaps not. But I know I have to beat Time when I learn music.
Mad Hatter: Ah! That accounts for it. He wont stand for beating. Now if you only kept on
good terms with him, hed do almost anything you liked with the clocks. But you could
keep it to half past one as long as you liked.
Alice: Is that the way you manage?
Mad Hatter: Not I. We quarreled last Marchjust before he went mad, you know. (indicating
the MARCH HARE) It was at the great concert given by the Queen of Hearts, and I had
to sing:
Winkle, twinkle, little bar,
How I wonder what youre at.
You know the song, perhaps?
Alice: Ive heard something like it.
Mad Hatter: It goes on, you know, in this way
Up above the world you fly
Like a tea-tray in the sky.
Twinkle, twinkle
Dormouse: Twinkle, twinkle, twinkle, twinkle. (Continues until bonked)
Mad Hatter: Well, Id hardly finished the first verseId hardly finished the first verseId
hardly finished the first versewhen the Queen bawled out, Hes murdering Time. Off
with his head.
Alice: How dreadfully savage!
Mad Hatter: And ever since that he wont do a thing I ask. Its always sic oclock now.
Alice: Is that the reason so many tea things are put out here?
Mad Hatter: Yes, thats it! Its always tea time and weve no time to wash the things between
whiles.
Alice: Then you keep moving around, I suppose.

March Hare, Mad Hatter, and Dormouse: Clean cup, clean cup, move down, move down,
clean cup, clean cup, move down!
Alice: But I dont understand. Where did they draw the treacle from?
Dormouse: You can draw water out of a water well, so I should thing you could draw treacle
out of a treacle well we, stupid?
Alice: But they were in the well.
Dormouse: Of course they werewell in! They were learning to draw and they drew all
manner of things; everything that begins with an M.
Alice: Why with an M?
March Hare: Why not?
Dormouse: That begins with an M, such as mouse-traps, and the moon, and memory and
muchnessyou know you say things are much of a muchnessdid you ever see such a
things as a drawing of muchness?
(Fragments of a poem start to flutter down as if it were raining words)
Alice: Really, now you ask meI dont think
Mad Hatter: Then you shouldnt talk.
Alice: Im getting out of here! Its the stupidest tea party I ever was at in all my life!
March Hare and Mad Hatter: (swinging the DOORMOUSE like pinata) Onetwo

White Rabbit: (follows the QUEEN and turns to ALICE) Its a fine day.
Alice: Very. Wheres the Duchess?
White Rabbit: Hush, hush! (Whispering) She is under sentence of execution.
Alice: What for?
White Rabbit: Did you say, What a pity?
Alice: No, I didnt. I dont think its at all a pity. I said, What for?
White Rabbit: She boxed the Queens ear. (ALICE laughs) Oh, hush! The Queen will hear
you. You see, she came rather late, and the Queen said
Queen: Get to your places! (Everyone starts playing as ALICE hunts for the DUCHESS)
Cheshire Cat: Hello again, Alice. Enjoying the game?
Alice: I suppose.
Cheshire Cat: How do you like the queen?
Alice: Not at all. She doesnt seem to play by the rules.
Cheshire Cat: Yes. She makes them up as she goes along.
Duchess: You cant think how glad I am to see you again, you dear old thing. Youre thinking
about something, my dear, and that makes you forget to talk. I cant tell just now what
the moral of that is, but I shall remember it in a bit.
Alice: Perhaps it hasnt one.
Duchess: Tut, tut, child! Everythings got a moral if you can find it.
Alice: The games going rather better now.
Duchess: Tis so. And the moral of that is, Be what you would seem to be. Or if youd like it
put more simply, Never imagine yourself to be otherwise than what it might appear to
others that what you were or might have been was not otherwise than what you had been
would have appeared to them to be otherwise.
Alice: I think I should understand that better if I had it written down, but I cant quite follow it
as you say it.
Duchess: Thats nothing to what I could say if I chose.
Alice: Pray dont trouble to say it any longer than that.
Duchess: Oh, dont talk about trouble. I make you a present of everything Ive said as yet. And
the moral (she sees the QUEEN OF HEARTS) A fine day, Your Majesty.
Queen of Hearts: Now I give you fair warning, either you or your heard must be off, and that in
about half no time. Take your choice! (Everyone gets to their balls) Play on!
Pg. 16
Everyone continues playing. Mid game everyone freezes as we see the KNAVE OF
HEART steals the Queens cherry tarts then the action continues and builds to chaos as
the lights fade.

Movement establishes that we are now by the sea.
Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe;
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgabe.
Act II Scene 1: By the Sea
ALICE enters to discover a MOCK TURTLE weeping on a low rock while the GRYPHON snores
nearby. Somewhere near wait a few LOBSTERS.
Alice: (waking up the GRYPHON) Excuse me What is his sorrow?
Gryphon: Its all his fancy, that; he hasnt got no sorrow, you know. Come on! This here
young lady, she wants for to know your history, she do.
Mock Turtle: Ill tell her. Sit down, both of you, and dont speak a word till Ive finished.
OnceI was a real turtle. When we were little, we went to school in the sea. The master
was an old turtlewe used to call him Tortoise.
Alice: Why did you call him Tortoise if he wasnt one?
Mock Turtle: We called him Tortoise because he taught us. Really you are very dull!
Gryphon: You ought to be ashamed of yourself for asking such a simple question. Drive on,
old fellow! Dont be all day about it.
Mock Turtle: Yes, we went to school in the sea, though you maynt believe it
Alice: I never said I didnt.
Mock Turtle: You did!
Gryphon: Hold your tongue.
Mock Turtle: We had the best of educations. In fact, we went to school every day. I only took
the regular course.

Red Queen: Thats easily managed. You can be the White Queens Pawn, if you like; and
youre in the Second Square to begin with: when you get to the Eighth square, youll be a
Queen. (Takes ALICE and starts running) Faster, faster!
Alice: I wonder if all the things move along with us?
Red Queen: Faster! Dont try to talk! Faster! Faster!
Alice: Are we nearly there?
Red Queen: Nearly there? Why, we passed it ten minutes ago! Faster! Now! Now! Faster!
Faster! (stops running) You may rest a little now.
Alice: Why, I do believe weve been right here the whole time! Everythings just as it was!
Red Queen: Or course it is. What would you have it?
Alice: Well, in our country, you generally get to somewhere else if you ran very fast for a long
times as weve been doing.
Red Queen: A slow sort of country! Now, here, you see, it takes all the running you can do to
keep in the same place. If you want to get somewhere else, you must run at least twice as
fast as that!
Alice: Id rather not try, please! Im quite content to stay here - only I am so hot and thirsty!
Red Queen: I know what youd life. (Handing ALICE a hard biscuit) Have a biscuit? While
youre refreshing yourself, Ill just take the measurements. At the end of two yardsI
shall give you your directions. Have another biscuit?
Alice: No, thank you, ones quite enough.
Red Queen: Thirst quenched, I hope? At the end of three yards, I shall repeat them for fear of
your forgetting them. At the end of four, I shall say good-bye. And at the end of five, I
shall go! A pawn foes two squares in its first move, you know. So youll go very
quickly through the Third Square and youll find yourself in the Fourth Square in no
time. Well, that square belongs to Tweedledum and Tweedledee - the Fifth is mostly
water But you make no remark?
Alice: II didnt know I had to make one just then.
Red Queen: You should have said, Its extremely kind of you to tell me all this,however,
well suppose it saidthe Seventh Square is all foresthowever, one of the Knights will
show you the waySpeak in French when you cant think of the English for a thing.
Turn out your toes when you walk, and remember who you are! (Starts running)
Alice: She can run very fast!
Pg. 21
ALICE is left alone as the RED QUEEN zooms off stage and a white lace shawl blows on
to the stage.
Act II Scene 3: The White Queen
Alice: Theres somebody shawl being blown off. Im glad I happened to be in the way.
White Queen: (sputtering on to the stage) Bread-and-butter, bread-and-butter, bread-and-butter.
Alice: Am I addressing the White Queen?
White Queen: Well, yes, if you call that a-dressing. It isnt my notion of the things at all.
Alice: If Your Majesty will only tell me the right way to begin, Ill do it as well as I can.
White Queen: But I dont want it done at all. Ive been a-dressing myself for the last two
hours.
Alice: Every single things crooked and she is all over pins. May I put your shawl straight for
you?
White Queen: I dont know whats the matter with it. Its out of temper, I think. Ive pinned it
here and Ive pinned it there, but theres no pleasing it.
Alice: It cant go straight, you know, if you pin it all on one side, and dear me, what a state your
hair is in.
White Queen: The brush has got entangled in it and I lost the comb yesterday.
Alice: You look rather better now, but really you should have a ladys maid.
White Queen: I am sure Ill take you with pleasure! Twopence a week and jam everyother day.
Alice: I dont want you to hire me - and I dont care for jam.
White Queen: Its very good jam.
Alice: Well, I dont want any today at any rate.
White Queen: You couldnt have it if you did want it. The rule is jam tomorrow and jam
yesterday but never jam today.
Alice: I dont understand you. It is dreadfully confusing.
White Queen: Thats the effect of living backwards, it always makes one a little giddy at first!
Alice: Living backwards! I never heard of such a thing!
White Queen: But there is one great advantage in it, that ones memory works both ways.
Alice: Im sure mine only works one way. I cant remember things before they happen.
White Queen: Its a poor sort of memory that only works backwards. Oh, oh, oh! My fingers
bleeding. Oh, oh, oh, oh!

Tweedledum: I know what youre thinking about, but it isnt so, nohow.
Tweedledee: Contrariwise. If it was so, it might be; and if it were so, it would be, but as it isnt,
it aint. Thats logic.
Alice: I was thinking which is the best way out of this wood. Its getting dark. Would you tell
me please?
Tweedledee: Like poetry, you do?
Alice: Yes, pretty well some poetry that is
Tweedledee: What shall we repeat to hear?
Tweedledum: The Walrus and the Carpenter
Tweedledee: Thats longest.

But four young oysters huffied up - all eager for the treat:
Their coats were brushed, their faves washed;
Their shoes were clean and neat
And this was odd, because you know, they hadnt any feet.
Four oysters followed them
And yet another four; And thich and fast they came at last,
And more, and more, and more
All hopping through the frothy waves,
And scarmbling to the shore.

Tweedledee: He ate more than the Carpenter though.
Alice: Then I like the Carpenter best
Tweedledum: But he ate as many as he could get.
Alice: Well! They were both very unpleasant characters. At any rate Id better be getting out of
this wood, for really its coming on very dark. Do you think its going to rain?
Tweedledum: No, I dont think it is - at least - not under here. Nohow.
Alice: But it may rain outside?
Tweedledee: It may if it chooses weve no objection. Contrariwise.
Alice: Selfish things!
Tweedledum: Do you see that?
Pg. 26
Alice: Its only a rattle - and old rattle - quite old and broken.
Tweedledum: I knew it was! Its spoilt, of course!
Tweedledee: You neednt be so angry about an old rattle.
Tweedledum: But it isnt old! Its new, I tell you, I bought it yesterday - my nice new rattle!
Of course you agree to have a battle?
Tweedledee: I suppose so.
Tweedledum: Do I look very pale?
Alice: Well, yes - a little.
Tweedledum: Im very brave generally, only today I happen to have a headache.
Tweedledee: And Ive got a toothache! Im far worse off than you!
Alice: Then youd better not fight today.
Tweedledum: We must have a bit of a fight, but I dont care about going on long.
Tweedledee: Whats the time now?
Tweedledum: Half-past four.
Tweedledee: Lets fight till six, and then have dinner.
Tweedledum: Very well, and she can watch usonly youd better not come very close, I
generally hit everything I can seewhen I get really excited.
Tweedledee: And I hit everything within reach, whether I can see it or not! Engarde!
Tweedledum: Touche!
The TWEEDLES engage in a ridiculous fight. Their fight is interrupted by a crash of thunder.
Tweedledum: Whats that?.
Tweedledee: A storm, I suspect.
Alice: But there arent any clouds.
Tweedledum: Except for that thick, black one!
Tweedledee: And look how fast it comes!
ALICE: Why, I do believe its got wings!
