THE SHOW: Alice is an ambulatory, multi-disciplinary theatrical experience. The audience, traveling in groups of 15, follows a white rabbit to various locations throughout the Main-Dempster Mile in Evanston. Ducking into storerooms and back patios, traipsing through stores and taverns and galleries, the audience IS Alice and the Main-Dempster Mile shopping district becomes a wonderland. Chapters of the book are divided amongst Evanston and Chicago theater companies, visual artists, and filmmakers, and performed in the various locations throughout the neighborhood.
With original work by The Factory Theater, Mudlark Theater Company, The Fleetwood-Jourdain Theater, ShowParty, and current and former ensemble members of The Neo-Futurists, Theatre Oobleck, Wildclaw, and Barrel of Monkeys.
