Truelove Tours presents in association with Hadleigh Productions....“Illuminating Alice!"
"A Mad Adventure in Growing up, Shrinking down and Jumping Stripy Tights first Through the Looking Glass of Gender!"
THE SHOW:
Alice d'Lumiere chose her name, her gender and her wardrobe and now she is revisiting her childhood imagination and exploring the fantastical tales which led to her real-life choices... In the parlance of the super hero genre - this is the origin story!
“Illuminating Alice” is a highly personal piece from an accomplished writer/performer; playfully analysing the narrative construction of the people we see in the mirror. The resultant work is a passionate, honest and celebratory show; part personal testament, part solo cabaret. Expect dynamic performance poetry, engaging comedy, songs, impersonations, voluminous frocks and definitely more than a touch of Lewis Carroll...
Gender fluid spoken word artist and poet, Alice d'Lumiere, has set herself a number of pulse-racing performance challenges over the years; from becoming an aerial hoop performer to an opera singer; all accomplished in pursuit of exploring identity, individual creativity and the joys of not always confirming to the gender one is assigned at birth.
“Illuminating Alice” was originally co-commission by Colchester Arts Centre and Norwich Arts Centre. and has been supported using public funding by the National Lottery through Arts Council England.
