Britain's What's On Event Guide
Meet The Hatter
In celebration of their 15th anniversary, Joss Arnott Dance returns with the company’s most ambitious production to date, their brand-new, cinematic dance and multimedia show Meet the Hatter.
Integrating dance, storytelling, original music, digital projection, lighting and animation, this epic production features a new retelling of the iconic Hatter character from Lewis Carroll’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland – but with a twist.
With no one arriving at the iconic tea party, the lonely Hatter uses the power of his imagination to create his own magical version of Wonderland shown through breathtaking and immersive multimedia – but what adventures lie ahead and who will he meet along the way?
Meet the Hatter takes us on a journey through a spectacular world that celebrates the importance of play, whilst exploring how developing self-belief can open up opportunities we’ve only ever dreamed of.
Meet The Hatter is supported using public funding by the National Lottery through Arts Council England. Commissioned by Lincoln Arts Centre. Supported by Northern Ballet, Z-arts, University of Salford, the Abderrahim Crickmay Charitable Settlement, Rotherham Metropolitan Borough Council, Children’s Capital of Culture, The Golsoncott Foundation and Unity Theatre Trust.
