About Boojum! presented by Victorian Opera
With dark twists and humorous turns, Boojum! blends the much-loved tale of Alice in Wonderland with Lewis Carroll’s nonsensical poem The Hunting of the Snark.
Meanwhile, it provides an imagined insight into the writer and the sensational world he created. Boojum! will transport you into his psyche as he grapples with his dual identities: the Reverend Charles Dodgson, and his pen name Lewis Carroll, the beloved children’s author. It will introduce you to an array of characters from both these worlds. It follows a young Alice as she meets folk from Lewis Carroll’s Alice in Wonderland series, and it examines the relationship between Dodgson and the real-life inspiration for Alice, Alice Liddell.
Sitting somewhere between opera and musical comedy, Boojum! will be performed as part of our VO Emerges program.
