Alice au pays des merveilles

The Adelaide University French Club presents its 2015 production, Alice au pays des merveilles, a french adaptation of the children's classic Alice in Wonderland.

In what promises to be the world's most hilarious rendition of the classic tale ever to be performed by Adelaide University students in the French language, Alice au Pays des Merveilles will delight audiences of all ages and linguistic capabilities.

To ensure our anglophonic audience members can still enjoy the fun, the play will feature some English surtitles, printed scene-by-scene guides and plenty of visual jokes.

Performances run from Wednesday 9 September to Friday 11 September at the Little Theatre, Adelaide University Cloisters. Matinées commence 1:00pm and evening performances begin at 7:00m. Doors will open 20 minutes prior to performances.

Join us on one of our special nights if it tickles your fancy! Thursday evening is wine and cheese night, with complimentary wine and cheese on offer in the foyer. Friday evening is our tertiary student special - bargain $8 tickets up for grabs for all tertiary students!*
