Welcome to Cirque Alice, the acclaimed modern theatrical sensation making its Manila debut at The Theatre at Solaire from October 16 to 25, 2026. Drawing inspiration from Lewis Carroll’s timeless classic, the show transforms Wonderland into a thrilling live adventure.
Ultimately, it fuses daring contemporary circus talent with the magic of theatrical storytelling.
A Classic Realm Brought to Dynamic Life
Here, Wonderland is completely reimagined. Rather than a static storybook, it becomes a realm full of constant motion and surprise.

Consequently, the two-hour adventure caters to all ages, enchanting both families and adults seeking a night of pure imagination.
At its core, Carroll’s delightfully eccentric universe remains full of curious characters. Cirque Alice captures this whimsical spirit, making the unimaginable feel remarkably close. Furthermore, an energetic soundtrack of reimagined classical favorites pulses through the show, infusing every feat with vibrant rhythm.
Under the vision of acclaimed producers Simon Painter and Tim Lawson, the production masterfully weaves athleticism, music, and visual storytelling. Together, these elements deliver a bold new take on a beloved fantasy world.
