ONE of literature’s most famous children’s stories has been performed in the city where it was written.
More than 80 people packed Risinghurst Community Hall in Oxford yesterday to watch Alice in Wonderland.
The show, performed by Oxfordshire Theatre Company, was the latest date in a tour that has seen the tale performed in towns and villages around the county.
The book, written by Oxford resident Lewis Carroll, was adapted for the stage by Neil Duffield, the 2006 winner of the Arts Council England Children’s Award, and combines puppetry, song and dance.
Theatre compnay spokesman Louise Wiggins said: “It has been really well received, especially by youngsters.”
The tour runs until March 5. For details of future performances, see the theatre compnay's website.
