‘Wonder Tierra’ mixes best of Lewis Carroll, Oz – Alicia in Wonder Tierra – Dallas
Tagged: book, children, Dallas, family, Texas, TheaterPosted on: September 17th, 2007“You could hardly ask for a better way to spend Mexican independence day than watching Alicia in Wonder Tierra.
Cara Mia Theatre Company is performing this family show by Silvia Gonzalez S., appropriately enough, at the Rosewood Center for Family Arts (the home of Dallas Children’s Theater). It’s all about understanding – and loving – one’s cultural roots.
Alicia in Wonder Tierra, as the name suggests, is a loose adaptation of Lewis Carroll’s two Alice books – but it also owes at least as much to The Wizard of Oz. Alicia, an adolescent Mexican-American who doesn’t speak a word of Spanish, reluctantly visits a shop dedicated to Hispanic arts – all the while agitating for a later stop by the mall.”
