The fantastic adventure “This is Wonderland” has won the hearts of visitors at the Mostra d'Oltremare and, given the huge participation, has decided to extend its stay until October 31. This immersive experience transforms one of the most beloved classics of literature, “Alice in Wonderland,” into a journey to be experienced firsthand.
Article Key Points
A Unique Narrative Journey
The uniqueness of “This is Wonderland” lies in its ability to create a narrative experience in which each guest becomes the protagonist of his or her own personal tale. The reworking of the story plays on fascinating questions: “What if Alice had never come back? What if the ending of the dream was not unique, but multiple? What if we were still living that dream?” There are no definitive answers, only individual interpretations and sensations. Each visitor becomes the author of an alternative story, in which the only key to crossing the threshold of imagination is knowing how to completely lose oneself.
An Extraordinary Project
The project, conceived by Lux Eventi, extends over an area of over 40.000 square meters. Spectators can get lost and find themselves among 1500 artisanal installations, accompanied by 25 original music tracks and a show full of light and sound choreographies. Two tailor-made performances make each visit unique and unrepeatable. A distinctive element of the experience is the characteristic Shisha Bar, where it is possible to meet the Brucaliffo, explore the food and beverage offerings and share a hookah in a decidedly suggestive environment.
Magical atmospheres
Visitors can relive Alice's story chapter by chapter. Among the main attractions are the Card Maze, where you can get lost among magical walls, a chess challenge with the Queen of Hearts, the misty world of the Caterpillar, and the Tea Area, perfect for taking unique photos. The disorienting mirrors test your perception of your own image, while every evening a show produced by industry professionals, and performed by extraordinary performers, closes the day in style.
An Event That Continues to Enchant
Roberto Fantauzzi of Lux Eventi comments: “This is Wonderland is an invitation to rediscover the magic of the world around us and to see ourselves as protagonists of a timeless adventure, where rationality and imagination intertwine, meet and collide.” Remo Minopoli and Maria Caputo of Mostra d'Oltremare add: “We are happy to continue hosting 'This is Wonderland', a project that has made Mostra d'Oltremare alive and attractive this summer. The result has been excellent, and we hope to continue like this. The collaboration with Lux Eventi has put the spotlight back on the Mostra and has attracted young and old. Differentiating the offer is the right way to make Mostra d'Oltremare grow not only as an exhibition and events hub, but also as a place to spend an evening in company, surrounded by greenery and the enchanting Alice in Wonderland installations.”
