and choreographer Yan Wensi.
Based on the 1865 novel by Lewis Carroll, the
story of Alice continues to enthrall the world with its bizarreness. Adults and
children alike draw delight from the encounters Alice has with the various
peculiar characters like the Red Queen,
Cheshire Cat, Caterpillar, Knave of Hearts, White Rabbit and the Duchess.
The accomplished cast consists of Xie Xing Yi, Xu Qin, Zhang Shuhui, Yang
Guanyu, Liu Yang and Li Xiang

Some of them play multiple roles in Alice in
Wonderland, notably Yang who is a
popular name in film and theatre in China, having appeared in the movies, Warrior Gate and New York Fairy Tale.
On TV, he appeared in the drama, Sichuan Wang Shi, while on stage, he
has participated in various productions including the musical, Wan Mei
Zhi Zuo and Ai De Feng Xian.
Ten
original songs featured
The Alice in Wonderland musical at Resorts
World Genting will stick to its original theme, depicting the little girl's dream—how
she chases the White Rabbit before falling into a rabbit hole and landing in a
whimsically strange underworld. In this world, a drink of water can shrink a
person and a piece of cake can turn one into a giant!
Alice soon crosses path with the Duchess, the
mysterious Caterpillar, the Cheshire Cat, a massive army of cards, and the Red
Queen who has a penchant for cakes and cutting off a person's head.
Amidst all the madness, Alice discovers more
about herself and the self-realisation leads to her gaining more courage and
wisdom—a development necessary as she prepares to face the evil Red Queen and
help rescue the Duchess and her friends.
Ten original songs will be performed including In a
World of My Own by Alice, I'm Late
by White Rabbit, We're not Waxworks
by Duchess, Painting the Roses Red by
Knave of Hearts, and What Genus Are You by Caterpillar.
The background music is presented by the German Radio Orchestra.
The theme song Brave Dream will be
sung by Alice and it is essentially an internal monologue before she summons
enough courage to attend the Red Queen's “Malicious
Banquet” to save the Duchess.
