Overview

Cirque Alice – an extraordinary new show from the creators of the global smash hits – The Illusionists, Circus 1903 and Le Noir!

Step into magical ‘Wonderland’ as Cirque Alice reimagines Lewis Carroll’s classic adventures with breathtaking twists and astonishing, gravity-defying feats.

Join us for the World Premiere of this unforgettable adventure starring the incredible Layla Schillert (Australian Idol) as Alice, the legendary Jeff Hobson (world‑renowned magician) as The Mad Hatter, and the show‑stopping TT Boys (Cirque du Soleil) as Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum!

This acrobatic sensation will also be brought to life by some of the world’s most jaw‑dropping aerialists, contortionists and acrobats, including Australia’s Got Talent finalists The Ramadhani Brothers and Oleg Tatarynov, Alexandre Lane (Cirque Bon Bon), and the mesmerizing Maria Sarach (Cirque du Soleil).

Set against an enthralling soundtrack of newly arranged contemporary renditions of some of the world’s favourite classical hits, Cirque Alice is a fantastical extravaganza for all ages packed with heart-stopping moments and unforgettable performances!
