He had remained there the entire time. The Red Queen could not make it through the doors and remained ready to resume. The audience reentered quickly and after thunderous applause for the theater staff and Mr. Perez, we continued our magical trip through the looking glass. p It was a charming and delightful theatrical experience for young and old. “Lookingglass Alice” will run at the Lookingglass Theatre inside Chicago’s historic Water Tower Water Works through August 31 with performances as follows: Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30 p.m. and Thursdays and Sundays at 3 p.m. pbr p p“Lookingglass Alice” pWater Tower Water Works p812 N.
