“I’m thrilled to put Company XIV’s unique stamp on Lewis Caroll’s beloved story,” McCormick said in an earlier statement. “So many patrons and performers have such a fondness for the Alice books, and I’ve reimagined our version as a whimsical, decadent, and naughty adventure. The previous version of the show really resonated with fans in 2019. At the time it was our longest running show. We are thrilled to bring it back with even more surprises, original music, and delicious cocktails. LEXXE, who has written several fabulous original songs and plays Alice, is such a talented songwriter and performer. Her classical background and musical sensibilities make her the perfect collaborator for this production. I’m thrilled and excited for the world to hear her new music.”
