1960 TV play based on Lewis Carroll’s Alice in Wonderland
The Adventures of Alice is a 1960 TV play starring Sonia Dresdel as the evil Red Queen. It was made by BBC Television and screened on 23 December 1960.
The play is based on the books Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass by Lewis Carroll.[1][2]
Following the success of Antony Hopkins’s opera, “Hands Across the sky” last February, The BBC commissioned him and Charles Lefeaux to write the opera The Adventures of Alice based on the stories by Lewis Carroll.[3]
Mary Crosier wrote in The Guardian about “the dreamlike fantasy” but called the production “curiously uneven”.[4] The film got a lot of praise from critics and audiences when it was released on 23 December 1960 so much so that the film was shown again on television on 7 August 1961 and it wasn’t shown again and now the film now lies in the BBC Archives.[5]
