Alice in ScienceLand at Hurleyville Performing Arts Centre

  • Hurleyville Performing Arts Centre 219 Main Street Hurleyville, NY, 12747 United States (map)

Tuesday October 14th | 11:00 am | Free admission at Hurleyville Performing Arts Centre

A young science student named Alice falls asleep while studying for her science exam. Suddenly a white rabbit appears and assumes the role of her tutor. White Rabbit takes Alice down a rabbit hole and embarks on a journey with her. Alice shrinks and grows and meets a host of characters from her natural sciences textbook.

In Alice’s adventures in ScienceLand, she meets Cilly, a singing microbe on a compost pile, a mysterious dancing Fungus, a sickly Atmosphere, the stormy Hydrosphere, and a livid Queen Bee. Each character feels the effects of human encroachment on their natural states of balance, habitat, and their very existence feels imperiled. At each encounter she learns new scientific facts and gains important environmental perspectives about the climate. Alice returns home ready to take her science test and fight for a healthy planet. This performance is great for children ages 5-12 or for all-age family shows.
