This unique dance theatre VR experience is an imaginative adaptation of the timeless story ‘Alice in Wonderland’. Feel up close with the performers in a magical adventure and be completely immersed in a VR Wonderland. Using Oculus 2 headsets, audiences are immersed in a spectacular 360-degree wonderland with 3D sound.
It's difficult to convey how utterly imaginative and fun this experience is, you can get a small flavour from the clip here. This is Alice, the Mad Hatter and the Red Queen as you've never seen them before, definitely not just for kids!
Taking place all day in the Old Brewery and seating four people at a time, Alice in VR Wonderland lasts for about 20 minutes.
The Mad Hatters Tea Party will be on all day where you can enjoy tea, coffee, juice, cakes and biscuits on sale in the Old Brewery cafe area. Dressing up optional!
