SUMMARY:Looking Glass Land
DESCRIPTION:Story Theater Company Presents Looking Glass Land\n\n\n\nPerforming at Camelot Theater April 10-19\, 2026\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis award-winning stage adaptation by renowned playwright James DeVita takes Lewis Carroll’s original Through the Looking Glass and literally runs with it. This wild adaptation highlights and improvises on the pure fun of the story. The play still retains some of Carroll’s deeper meanings\, but what it possesses most of all is a huge helping of silliness! This delightful romp through Alice’s looking glass land retains all of the familiar characters then introduces dozens of new ones: a baseball team\, a gospel group called The Responsibilities\, a train conductor\, a peanut salesman\, detectives\, a Miss America pageant\, star-struck tourists\, plastic light saber wielding knights and much more.
