A SHOW direct from the Royal Ballet in London will be screened at cinemas across the region when it appears on stage.

Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland is the first in a short season of live satellite broadcasts to the Regent in Christchurch on Tuesday December 16 at 7.15pm.

The Royal Ballet’s first new full-length work since 1995, Christopher Wheeldon’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland was first performed on the stage in 2011.

Alice encounters a cast of extraordinary characters, from the highly strung Queen of Hearts to dancing playing cards, a sinuous caterpillar and a tap-dancing Mad Hatter.

Ballet fans can look forward to two more live satellite broadcasts from the Royal Ballet – Swan Lake on Tuesday, March 17 and La Fille Mal Gardee on Tuesday May 5, both at 7.15pm.
