Program Information About Performance Award for the Most Innovative Play 2018 at Fira de Lleida (Spain) Alice gets bored until she suddenly hears the footsteps of a rabbit and decides to follow it to its warren. There, she enters the door to an enigmatic world in which there is no time and nothing is what it seems like. Alice goes deeper into doubts, desires, questions, fears and mysteries, on this new journey through the Invisible Cities, imaginary territories populated by strange beings and some other inner monsters. <Alice and the Invisible Cities> is a reinterpretation of Alice in Wonderland with a transdisciplinary stage (projections, sound space, masks and puppets) that explores the imaginary world created by Lewis Carroll from a contemporary perspective. Reviews The jury gave the Award for Carroll's adaptation to the company's artistic language, characterized by technical perfection in lighting, sound and technological resources, which results in a rabidly contemporary Alice with an unusual visual power.
