Lewis Carroll’s classic tale of weird adventure down the rabbit hole will hit the Jubilee stage with the latest Alberta Ballet production — choreographed by the company’s ballet master, Edmund Stripe.

On April 4, families can go one step further and meet Alice, the Queen of Hearts, the Mad Hatter and the Rabbit at the Mad Hatter’s Children’s tea, with an Alberta Ballet school performance and the chance for kids to create their own mad hat.

Alice in Wonderland runs April 2 to 4 at the Southern Alberta Jubilee Auditorium. The Mad Hatter’s Tea is April 4 in the Banquet Room at the Jubilee.
