Meet the Artist
Stay after the show for a brief informal Q&A session in the theater with the artist.
Seamlessly blending illusion, acrobatics, magic and whimsy, MOMIX sends audiences flying down the rabbit hole in Moses Pendleton’s newest creation, "Alice," inspired by Lewis Carroll’s classic "Alice in Wonderland." Join this dazzling company on a mind-bending adventure as Alice encounters time-honored characters, including the undulating Caterpillar, a lobster quadrille, frenzied White Rabbits, a mad Queen of Hearts and a variety of other surprises. Filled with visual splendor and startling creative movement, Alice reveals that nothing in MOMIX’s world is as it seems!
"I don’t intend to retell the whole Alice story, but to use it as a taking off point for invention."
- Moses Pendleton, Founder and Artistic Director
