Theatre in Kilkenny; theatre history; youth theatre; performing arts; Kilkenny Youth Theatre
<em>Alice is 12 and a half years of age and it bothers her to be thought of as a child. Why do all these other people get to make decisions, confuse her and boss her?</em> <br /><br />With a cast of 21 young people from County Kilkenny, this abridged interpretation of <strong>Alice in Wonderland</strong> is influenced by steampunk, which incorporates technology into 19th-century industrial steam-powered machinery.
