Saturday 1 April, 11am - 3pm
Don’t be late for a very important date! On Saturday 1 April Andover will be in for a treat as the town centre will transform into a very special ‘wonderland’ to host live street theatre performances.
Come along and join Alice in a world of playful, immersive nonsense that is both delightful and mad as enchanting characters from the well-loved children’s book will take audiences on a journey across the town. Expect conversation, riddles, acrobatics and hilari-tea, chat with Caterpillar, play croquet with the Queen and have tea with the Hatter!
The day will consist of three different performances taking place at:
11am - 11:45am
12:30pm - 1:15pm
2pm - 2:45pm
Characters will be popping up in various locations including the High Street the Chantry Centre and The Library, so you will need to seek them out on the day.
Alongside the live theatre, you can look forward to:
FREE Alice in Wonderland-themed craft workshops in the Chantry Centre’s indoor garden area, near to Boswell’s, between 11am to 3pm.
Take part in a special Alice-themed scavenger hunt throughout the town, pick up an entry form in the garden area or Andover library, 11am - 3pm.
The Chantry Centre’s Indoor market will also be open between 9:30am – 4pm, featuring local independent businesses.
There will be Alice-themed colouring activities in Andover Library.
InAndover from Andover BID will be launching their Easter activities on the day, including a special Easter bonnet adventure and business window dressing competition. Visit them on Andover High Street to find out more and take part.
Dressing up is encouraged as you join Alice on her adventures! Have a fantastic day!
