Alexandra Palace

Alice’s Adventures Underground

 

Alice

The Vaults at Waterloo are playing host to an amazing version of Alice in Wonderland.  A show that draws you into the world of nonsense and makes you play along with the characters.  I don’t want to be a spoiler  but it’s an outrageously  fun 90 minutes of mayhem. The sets and costumes, intricate and curious.  Twists and turns in every room. Unpredictability is the name of the game. I laughed with wonder and humour for the full duration.  Puppetry and dance, comedic turns coupled with a lot of being bossed around in the madness.  Watch out for the Queen of Hearts!  There is a children’s version and an adult version and it’s not on for long. If you can – do it!  Photos aren’t allowed inside so I offer my snapshot above.  If you wanted to ever visit Wonderland they have made it possible.

Gymkhana

Where to begin with the feast that was laid before us?  Gymkhana, needs some booking ahead. Why? Because if you like this sort of food they are at the top of the game in London. I use opentable, book one month ahead and take the £35 tasting menu for a late lunch.  Oh you may think it may not look much as a three course meal (you can do four courses should you wish)  But I dare you to roll out of that restaurant wanting more.
