3 ClASSROOM GUIDE ALICE IN WONDERLAND Note: This guide contains suggested learning experiences for various age levels. Please select those projects and ideas, which are best for your class. BEFORE YOU GO: Introduce your students to "Alice in Wonderland", by explaining to them that in this classic story, extraordinary things happen to a perfectly ordinary little girl. The wit, humor and fantasy of this beloved tale have delighted generations the world over. 1. Familiarize your students with the story of "Alice in Wonderland" by Lewis Carroll. Have they read the book? Show and discuss the famous original illustrations by John Tenniel. 2. Recall other media in which students may have seen Alice? On film? At an ice show? Discuss the similarities and differences of other modes of presentation. How do they think that the different art forms... i.e. animated vs live theater... will affect their impressions of Alice and her. friends. Is one more "real" than the other? (Review this question again after the show. Have impressions changed? 3. Create a comer for "Alice in Wonderland Hearth-side Study". Ask students to bring in various books, pictures, dolls, puppets, pulzles and original drawings for perusal at their leisure. 4. Focus a special section on Lewis Carroll. Identify Oxford, England on a map.

4 Note that Lewis Carroll actually wrote this curious tale when he was a respected professeur at Oxford University for Alice Liddell. Alice was the daughter of a colleague. Did Lewis Carroll enjoy make-believe even though he was a grown-up. 5. Explain to students that they are about to see a live onstage musical production of "Alice in Wonderland'. There will be songs and dances as well as acting to tell the story. This production is an original adaptation created and presented by ATAFY for audiences throughout the United States and Canada. Students will see many famous "Alice in Wonderland" characters in this musical. 6. Encourage your students to use their own Capital I (for imagination) and dress as their favorite character. In preparation, your class may want to make Queen of Hearts Crowns, Rabbit ears, Mad Hatter head pieces, etc. 7. Theater Manners: Remind your class that students can help everyone have an especially wonderful experience at the performance by remembering their theater manners. No talking during the show will assure that all their friends and the audience around them will be able to enjoy everything that's happening on stage. AFfER THE SHOW: Ask the students to recall the story that they saw on stage. Do they think Alice will return to Wonderland some day?

5 QUESTIONS FOR DISCUSSION: 1. Is Wonderland a real place? Do you believe Mrs. Mumsford thinks Wonderland is a dream? Is Wonderland only real for children? Can adults believe in Wonderland, too? 2. How would you describe the Queen of Hearts? What would it be like to live in a place where only one person decided what was right and what was wrong? Are there such places in the world? Where? 3. Why do you think the White Rabbit is always late? Are you usually early?...late? 4. Is the Caterpillar conceited? Do you know someone who always thinks they are right? 5. Did you think TweedleDee and TweedleDum were funny? Could you tell which was which? 6. Did you like the Tea Party? Do you think it is polite to invite someone to have tea with you and not have enough cups? What would you do in that situation? Do you think that the Mad Hatter and the Dormouse have trouble telling time? Is that why their tea party started so early? Can you tell time? 7. Do you think it was a good idea to paint the white roses, red? Would you do it if you could? 8. Do you think the Knave of Hearts really stole those tarts?

6 THINK THEATRICALLY... Describe the sets. Did the brightly colored paint on the sets make you feel as though you were really inside the pages of a storybook? Would you help build and paint a set? How does the set establish the scenes for different parts of the story. What did you actually see? What did you see with your imagination? How did Alice's bedroom tum into Wonderland? How did Alice and the White Rabbit get into Wonderland? Did the set change? How? Did the bright colors and special effects make the show feel like a make believe fantasy? How did the lights help? How did the costumes relate to the characters? Which character did you think was the most funny? Curious? Strange? If you could be in the show, which role would you prefer? HOW ABOUT YOU: Do you like to act? Sing? Dance? Would you like to be in a show at school? Have y ou ever wished to go to a special far away place? Did you ever get your wish? Have you ever met someone who looked different from you? Acted different? How did you react to that person? Did you feel differenuy about them when you got to know them?

7 LEARNING BY DOING.... PROJECTS TO TRY: Create paper dolls of the characters, with backgrounds and recreate the story. Make "Mad Hatter" hats that make you giggle. Make up, as part of a team, silly songs and/or rhymes to be performed at a tea party. Have a Wonderland Tea Party. Design and deliver invitations to another classroom. Serve 'Wonderland Tea" and cookies.

12 On Stage With j\mencan Family Theater 'theater Etiquette: The audience plays a key part in the overall theater experience. Each audience member affects those around him or her as well as the performers. Remind your class that everyone will have an especially wonderful time at the performance by remembering their theater manners. Here is how students can help:! It is important to remain seated throughout the entire perfonnance.! Restroom visits are best made prior to seating.! Photography and recording during the perfonnance are not permitted.! Give your full attention and energy to the performers. In return, the performers give it back to you with a better performance.! Don't talk during the show unless you are asked. Sometimes we think that if we whisper, it is okay. But if everyone in the audience whispers, it can be disruptive to the performers.! Turn watches, pagers and cell phones to silent. : Do not interrupt performers with comments that may disrupt the perfonnance for others.! Show the performers your appreciation for their efforts by applauding. our cooperation will ensure a well-focused environment for everyone to enjoy, cherish & remember. Thank you. 5

14 ~ O h, How very curious! American Family Theater's production of Alice in Wonderland is sure to transport you through the looking glass to a land filled with excitement, music, and fantasy. Alice's journey begins in her bedroom, where Alice is getting ready for the day. While brushing her hair, Alice thinks she hears voices calling her name. Her Governess, Mrs. Mumford, enters and tells Alice t~at the voices are all in tier head. Alice is not convinced, remembering~ not so long ago she saw a rabbit carrying a watch in his vest pocket. Mrs. Mumford tells Alice~ stop talking nonsense and to hurry along for the day's activities. (Rabbits Don't Carry Watches) \\'hen Mrs. Mumford leaves, suddenly a rabbit appears in Alice's mirror beckoning her to come with him to Wonderland, because he is late, so very, very late! (Wonderland) From here Alice follows the White Rabbit through the looking glass to Wonderland. Once in Wonderland, The White Rabbit leaves Alice alone in a clearing, where she meets a know-it-all Caterpillar with a special talent for numbers. When Alice tries to correct his mathematics, he tells her to stop speaking nonsense, because he knows what e\erything means! (\\' onderful) Frustrated with her seeming petulance, the Caterpillar leaves Alice. Suddenly Tweedledum & Tweedledee, two large young men with a penchant for poetry, appear from behind a tree. After sharing some of their favorite rhymes, Tweedledum and Tweedledee introduce Alice to their hardboiled friend, Bumpity Dumpity! (Never Seen an Egg Like That) The Tweedles lead Alice into another part of the forest where she crosses paths once again with the White Rabbit. The White Rabbit reads a proclamation that is most alarming to Alice:., + + The Queen of Hearts made some tarts, all on a summer's day The Knave of Hearts stole the tarrs, and took them clean away In a flash of bombast and bluster, The Queen ofhearts enters with an unforgettable directive: OFF WITH HIS HEAD! This order is directed at the Knave of Hearts who despite the Red Queen's insistence maintains his innocence. But unfortunately, the Knave has given the Queen something else to be angry about: he accidentally planted white roses in the Red Queen's garden. And worse, he painted the white roses red to try and fool her! The Queen points this out because, she says, "It proves the Knave is sneak), and it takes a sneaky person to steal my tarts!" 7

15 The Duchess, who has watched the proceedings with quiet anticipation, now has her hands full trying to keep her baby quiet. But Alice soon notices that the Duchess' baby isn't a baby at all, but a pig! At the Queen's urging, the Duchess, White Rabbit and Queen sing a song to put the baby pig to sleep. (Lullaby) As the Duchess exits to put her "little darling" to bed, the Caterpillar enters offering his services to the Queen, who tells him that he will be the Knave's lawyer in his trial as soon as the Knave is found. When the White Rabbit enters with the Knave, the Queen of Hearts immediately proclaims off with his head. When Alice reminds the Queen that there has to be a trial first, the queen has a better idea: let's have a victory celebration first! (A Ball At The Palace) At the begirming of Act Two, Alice finds herself in the garden of the Mad Hatter. The Mad Hatter and Dormouse are busily preparing for four o'clock tea, to be served precisely at three. (Four O'clock Tea) Alice tries quite unsuccessfully to join the Mad Hatter and Dormouse for tea. The Caterpillar and the Knave walk into the garden. The Caterpillar is furiously giving legal advice to the Knave, who is depressed because he is afraid that there is nothing he can do to save his head from the. Queen of Hearts. The Caterpillar tells the Knave to stop being gloomy, and to look for the silver lining behind every dark cloud. (Soon You'll See the Sun) At the end of the song, the Queen enters. When she sees the Knave of Hearts, she immediately proclaims, off with his head! A thrilling chase ensues, and transports us back to the Queen's courtroom.. Back at the Queen's Court, the trial begins. (Trial) Alice tries to tell the Queen that she cannot be part of the jury, because as the Queen she won't be fair. Dismissing Alice's allegation the Queen asks herself if she will be fair during the trial, and of course, her answer is yes! "Get it over with quickly" is the Queen's new order for this trial. After some nonsensical interrogation, and equally wacky cross-examination, the Queen calls for the jury's verdict. (Trial) When the Mad Hatter can't remember the verdict, the Queen delivers her own verdict, guilty. Alice tells the Queen that her brand of justice is not fair. The Queen of Hearts, not to be outdone by a young girl, orders her soldiers to chop otf Alice's head! Before she loses her head, Alice finds herself back in her bedroom. Unable to remember how she got there, or got out of Wonderland, Alice convinces herself that she must have been daydreaming. But no sooner than Alice tells herself that Mrs. Mumford was right about the nonexistence of talking rabbits and dancing cards, Alice looks in the mirror, and sees the White Rabbit! (Finale) Filled with colorful sets, inventive costumes, and creative staging, American Family Theater's Alice in Wonderland is sure to enchant audiences everywhere. 8

16 About the Author: The 'wonder'fulland ofwonderland was created by Charles Lutwidge Dodgson under the pen name Lewis Carroll. He was born on January 27, 1832 in_.dar~sbury, England where he used to tell stories to entertain his family. He graduated from Oxford University and later became a mathematics teacher there. But math was not his only interest. He liked art, theater and photography. As an adult he loved to use his imagination to create stories for the children of his friends. Alice in Wonderland was created to entertain the three daughters of Henry George Liddell: Edith, Lorina and, of course, Alice. Later, it was handwritten, illustrated and bound and given to Alice Liddell as a Christmas gift in The printed version was first published in 1865, titled Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and was illustrated by Sir John Tenniel. It was followed by Through the Looking Glass and What Alice Found There in The Alice stories have been translated into many languages and enjoyed by not only children but also adults all around the world. 9
