“But I don’t want to go among mad people," Alice remarked.
"Oh, you can’t help that," said the Cat: "we’re all mad here. I’m mad. You’re mad."
​
Whether you’re a curious traveler or a seasoned resident of Wonderland, there is a seat at the table for you. This is a living, breathing celebration of the absurd, and it’s open to explorers of all ages.

The tea is brewing, and the March Hare is getting restless! Our event is packed with activities designed to spark your imagination and pull you directly into the story:
Short Performances: Catch snippets of live theatre popping up when you least expect them.
​
Hat-Making Workshop: Create your own marvellous millinery to wear with pride.
​
Quest for Red Roses: The gardeners have made a terrible mistake! Help us change the white roses for red before the Queen arrives.
​
​
​
​
Music, Riddles & Games: Test your wits against our residents. Why is a raven like a writing desk? (We’re still figuring that one out ourselves).
​
Croquet: Try your hand at a game of flamingo croquet.
​
Eat Me & Drink Me: Enjoy specially themed cakes and potions that are sure to delight the senses.
​
This is a space where the boundaries between the stage and the audience disappear. You aren't just watching the tea party; you are part of it. Expect the unexpected and embrace the general absurdity.
“Have some wine,” the March Hare said in an encouraging tone. Alice looked all round the table, but there was nothing on it but tea.
Everything is free, everyone is welcome, and we can’t wait to see you there.
Join the Wonderland Crew!
An event this mad doesn’t happen by magic alone (though a little helps). We are looking for volunteers to help bring the dream to life.
​
We need: Performers to inhabit the world.
Workshop Helpers to guide our hat-makers.
Croquet Refs & Game Hosts to keep the fun moving.
Tea & Cake Servers to keep the guests refreshed.

As the Mad Hatter says: “It's always tea-time!”
