News: KidZania London announces immersive Wonderland experience for children

Popular children’s entertainment company KidZania London announce a brand-new immersive experience based on Lewis Carroll’s Alice in Wonderland. Wonderland will run at the Westfield location from 19 June to 31 August.

Delving into the well-known tale, children will begin by following the White Rabbit Trail to gather clues to the secret entrance, where they’ll be tasked to help prepare for the Queen of Heart’s Garden Party.

Paint the roses red and help to design and practise silver service as the kids set up the table for the Mad Hatter’s Tea Party! No party is complete without entertainment, so guests will also need to write their own comedy routine to perform to the Queen and hope their moves on dance floor don’t disappoint in the Garden Dance.

As if that wasn’t enough, refreshments will be needed, and what goes better with tea than biscuits? The Queen requests children design their best iced biscuits for her guests, and she might even let them take them home to eat!

The experience will also let children and families relax in the KidZania Theatre to watch an exclusive filmed performance of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. This will be performed by a cast of West End performers, including Erin Bell (Birdie/Dance Captain), Kyle Birch (Cheshire Cat), Edward Court (Caterpillar), Jack Dargan (Card/Featured Ensemble), Josh Harrison Yellop (Dodo/March Hare/Card), Ashleigh Harvey (Duchess/Queen of Hearts), Beccy Lane (Alice), Louis Rayneau (The White Rabbit), Luke Street (Mouse/Mad Hatter), Natalie Thorn (Duck/Dormouse) and Jason Leigh Winter (Eagle/Guard/Featured Ensemble), filmed in collaboration with Future Spotlight Productions.

The filmed performance is directed by Louis Rayneau, with choreography by Rachel Sargent, videography Fabio Santos and sound design by Matthew Case, with musical direction by Edward Court and assistant direction by Lauren Osborn.
