SCENE 1 - IN THE GARDEN
NARRATOR: It’s a hot day in the garden. Alice, a happy little girl, is sitting with her
sister under a tree. Her sister is reading a book.
SISTER: Once upon a time there was a little girl. She liked playing in the garden…
ALICE: Hmm, my sister is reading a book, but there are no pictures. It’s too boring. I’d
like to go and pick some flowers.
NARRATOR: Suddenly, a White Rabbit with pink eyes runs past Alice.
ALICE: Sister, can you see it? Can you see it?
SISTER: See what? I don’t see anything.
ALICE: A white rabbit! It looks strange!
SISTER: No, I don’t see a rabbit! Let me read! “One day the girl goes to the forest…”
WHITE RABBIT: Oh no! I'm late!
NARRATOR: Alice is very surprised. The Rabbit looks at a watch and runs away.
ALICE: A Rabbit with a coat and a watch! I have to catch it!
SISTER: Where are you going, Alice? Come back!!!
NARRATOR: Alice runs after the Rabbit. It goes into a big rabbit hole under a hedge.
WHITE RABBIT: I can't be late! I must hurry!
NARRATOR: Alice follows the Rabbit into the hole. Suddenly, she starts falling.
ALICE: Oh, nooo. I'm falling! But it's slow. What are these? Cupboards? Pictures? A
jar? What's in that jar? Oh, it's empty. I can fall like this forever. Oh, is that a cake?
And some juice?
MAGIC JUICE: Hello, Alice! Drink me! It’s tasty!

corner and sees a big room with locked doors.

with a key. It's too small!
NARRATOR: Alice takes the key and finds a little door. The key fits! Alice opens the
door and sees a lovely garden.

it.

CAKE: I’m a super tasty cake, But I’m actually fake!
I’m made of plastic, But look fantastic!
Come on, Alice, take a bite!

NARRATOR: Alice cries a lot and makes a big pool of tears. She sees the White
Rabbit again.
WHITE RABBIT: I'm late for the game!
ALICE: Wait! Listen!
NARRATOR: The Rabbit runs away. But drops his fan and gloves. Alice takes the fan
and fans herself.

that her tears become a pool.

ALICE: Can you show me the way out of here? Where is my cat? Sorry! I forgot mice
don't like cats.
