MOMIX: Alice

  • Muriel Kauffman Theatre, Kauffman Center for the Performing Arts 1601 Broadway Blvd Kansas City, MO, 64108 United States (map)

music and dance

Known internationally for presenting work of exceptional inventiveness and physical beauty, MOMIX is a company of dancer-illusionists under the direction of Moses Pendleton.

Travel down the rabbit hole MOMIX-style with their newest creation, ALICE, inspired by Alice in Wonderland. As Alice’s body grows and shrinks and grows again, the dancers extend themselves by means of props, ropes, and other dancers.

The Alice story is full of imagery and absurd logic – before there was surrealism there was Alice. Alice is an invitation to invent, to let imagination run and play outside. “Ask Alice,” sang Grace Slick in “White Rabbit” – she also said “feed your head.”

“You can see why I think Alice is a natural fit for MOMIX and an opportunity for us to extend our reach. I want to take this show into places we haven’t been before in terms of the fusion of dancing, lighting, music, costumes, and projected imagery,” says Pendleton. As with every MOMIX production, you never quite know what you are going to get. Audiences will be taken on a journey that is both magical, mysterious, fun, eccentric, and much more. As Alice falls down the rabbit hole and experiences every kind of transformation, so will you.
