Well, it takes two lockdowns for us to realise how much we appreciate Lockdown Streaming TV! Alice in Streamingland is a pansexual musical pantomime celebrating Alice’s fall into the world of Streamingland - those streaming entertainment channels we couldn’t do without over the last nine months.
This LIVE, adult musical pantomime finds Alice following the White Rabbit down the rabbit hole into Interflixland, Disney C Minusland, and iPlayerland as she struggles to get home. Will the Evil Queen of Hearts take over as Vice President of Global TV, will The White Knight win through with his new “Made in Streamingland” reality show, or will Alice triumph against all odds as she records her journey for her TokTik channel?
Along the way, she’ll meet all the familiar Wonderland characters - but with a twist - who would have thought that the Queen of Hearts would be played by RuPaul, The White Rabbit by Joe Exotic, The Cheshire Cat by Moira Rose, or the Duchess by Dot Cotton?!
This show is strictly 16+
Alice in Streamingland is one of just a handful of LIVE pantomimes to be running in London’s west end this winter and will be performed under social distancing measures to ensure cast and audience safety. Capacity will be limited to just 40%, and audience members will be provided dedicated cabaret tables - just like being at the Mad Hatter’s Tea Party! To ensure inclusivity, single ticket options are being provided, and guests from the same bubble are strongly encouraged to attend.
Alice in Streamingland is written by Colin Savage, an Executive Producer with twenty years’ experience in the world of TV and social media. With Alice in Streamingland, he smashes together his experience of TV memes with years of knowledge playing a traditional pantomime Dame all over the country. The set cleverly involves video backgrounds and live cameras to create an amazing mix between staged theatre and television, with ten thumping songs performed by West End actor-singers.

Laura Hyde as Black and White Cat & Duchess
Laura is excited to be back at The Phoenix Arts Club, a place she holds dearly, to be appearing in Alice in Steamingland! It's fortunate to be her second pandemic credit, having appeared in an open air tour of Two Gentleman of Verona this summer with British Touring Shakespeare.
She's somewhat of an adult panto veteran having appeared in Dick! And Dick Comes Again! At The Leicester Square Theatre back in 2013/14 and she can't wait be back performing again to round off this slightly crazy year.
