The performance was a playful and loose reference to Alice in Wonderland. The stage was framed by a ribbon with fringe and pompons as to indicate the audience they were about to witness a fairytale. It started with the silhouette of a girl blowing on a bouquet of flowers. She was offered a cup of tea and after drinking it the screen was filled with colourful planets that moved energetically and changed size, as if the frenzy had been caused by the tea. Another memorable scene showed the girl undressing and taking off a lacy bra and then realizing she's being spied by a man. She shrieks and a giant high-heeled shoe kicks the man out of the screen. The performance was enhanced by live drumming and beautiful wire puppets and props made from wire with intricate lace-like designs that were reminiscent of Indonesian puppetry.
All in all i think this was a wonderful, creative performance that made me feel and enjoy it like I was a child!
