Movie Reviews of Alice at the Palace (Broadway Theatre Archive)
Movie Review: Broadway Theatre Archive, Alice at the Palace
Summary: 5 Stars
I saw this when it was first broadcast in 1982 and loved it. Then, when I saw it was on DVD, I bought it. I watched it with old friends and it was still just as fresh and delightful. We laughed and ooohed and aaaahed all the way through it. Thank you, Broadway Theatre Archive, for putting it on DVD!!
Summary of Alice at the Palace (Broadway Theatre Archive)
Meryl Streep displays the talent that would soon make her a movie star in Alice at the Palace, a musical theater adaptation by Elizabeth Swados of Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass. Dressed in pink overalls, Streep sings and dances through such famous scenes as the Mad Tea Party and playing croquet with the Queen of Hearts. This production, from the early 1980s, lies somewhere between Hair and Into the Woods. The music ranges across a variety of styles (from calypso to barbershop quartet) and video manipulations enhance the inventive physical staging, but it's Streep that will carry you through--her sound effects as Alice changes size (after drinking from a bottle labeled "Drink Me") are delightful, capturing both a childlike imagination and the fluid reality of theater. Alice at the Palace features several other recognizable faces, including Mark Linn-Baker (My Favorite Year) and dancer-choreographer Debbie Allen. --Bret FetzerDrama DVD Video
