Alice in Korea

My school went and saw a Korean version of Alice in Wonderland today...in English. Here are some highlights.

1) A two or three minute song about a password to open the door to wonderland.
2) A song about "bad cats" (who replaced the cheshire cat) that's lyrics were mostly "we're bad cats" and "we're happy to be bad."
3) An on stage transformation of the caterpiller into a butterfly accomplanied by a song about how cute she was.
4) Wonderful lines such as "Let's go inside. It'll be funny," and "I can't wait to go to wonderland. It'll be funny." (I imagine they meant "fun").
5) The Korean accents, which brought on such fun as "everybody shit" when Alice wanted the cast to sit down.
6) And then, of course, there was the fact that no one actually sang the songs, but instead lip-synced poorly.

Really, the play had little to do with Alice in Wonderland, but instead was just an excuse to have actors run around on stage and do weird things. And believe me, they did.
