Alice's Adventures in Wonderland Blu-ray Disc (The Royal Ballet)

The original cast recording of Christopher Wheeldon's spectacular Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. Although it stars Lauren Cuthbertson as Alice and Sergei Polunin as the lovelorn Knave, who can forget Zenaida Yanowsky's show-stopping Queen of Hearts or Steven McRae's tap-dancing Mad Hatter? Captivating designs by Bob Crowley, an engaging and passionate score by Joby Talbot, and Wheeldon's breathtaking choreography combine to produce one of The Royal Ballet's most popular ballets.

Reviews

"[Wheeldon] and his team have created an Alice whose wit, speed and invention have lifted the whole story ballet genre into the 21st century." The Guardian

"... a brilliantly theatrical, superbly designed (by Bob Crowley) extravaganza of color and costume, madcap action and fluent dance" New York Times

"spectacular family entertainment brought to life with enormous theatrical verve." The Times

"Wheeldon's casting of Cuthbertson... is inspired. With her hairband, willowy line and airy English style, she inhabits the role from the first." The Observer

Fun and Expressive ballet

I saw some clips on YouTube and thought what a great ballet that I would love! Since I am half way around the world I hoped I could find the entire ballet to watch. Thank you for having this ballet on a Blu ray disc because it was beautiful, fun, mischievous, and so well done. The whole family loved this one! Made us go reference the book as well because we forgot some parts of the story. If I lived in London, I would definitely see in person because everything is even better in person. Thank you!
