Story and Experience
Cirque Alice reimagines the beloved tale of Alice in Wonderland through stunning visual storytelling. Instead of focusing on dialogue, the show uses movement, music, and breathtaking stage effects to pull audiences down the rabbit hole.
From the very first act, you’ll meet larger-than-life characters — the Mad Hatter, the Queen of Hearts, and of course, Alice — all brought to life by world-class acrobats and dancers.
The seamless blend of physical theatre, aerial performances, and digital artistry makes this show feel part dream, part circus, and entirely unforgettable.
