This truly amazing event promises to bring a touch of the magical and surreal world of Wonderland to the capital!
Taking place in London’s Leicester Square, the premiere is being held in aid of The Prince’s Foundation for Children & the Arts, which aims to remove barriers so that all UK children have the opportunity to discover the arts as a valuable and enjoyable part of life.
Tim Burton’s magical and imaginative Alice in Wonderland is inspired by Lewis Carroll’s beloved Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass and is brought to the big screen in ground-breaking Disney Digital 3D and features stunning avant-garde visuals.
The film sees Alice embarking on a fantastical journey to find her true destiny and end the Red Queen’s reign of terror and marks a return to Disney for director Tim Burton.
Incorporating characters, story elements and the central themes from both of Carroll’s books, Burton’s Alice in Wonderland features a new adventure as 19-year-old Alice returns to Wonderland for the first time since she was a child with no memory of her previous adventures there.
Alice In Wonderland is released 5th March.
