NeverWonderLand is an original story inspired by Lewis Carroll’s Alice in Wonderland
and J.M. Barrie’s Peter Pan, and acts as a prequel that fuses both classics.
Re-imagining two of the 19th century’s most beloved tales, NeverWonderLand is an original story
that acts as a prequel to both Lewis Carroll’s Alice in Wonderland and J.M. Barrie’s Peter Pan.
Boom Kat fuses two iconic visions of youthful exploration and adolescent fear as Peter and Alice,
brother and sister, search for a place in their lives somewhere between imagination and reality.
This adventurous story wrestles with intersections of time and place,
fantasy and reality, and childhood and adulthood.
Boom Kat Dance Theatre was founded in 2006 by Lili Fuller, Emily Iscoff-Daigian
and Adam North with the goal of creating compelling and accessible dance theatre.
In 2007 Boom Kat debuted Revolutions, an episodic show that explored
the term “revolution”
from its most personal level, to its most universal.
In 2008, Boom Kat embarked on a partnership with Los Angeles' Ensemble Theatre Company,
who introduced the young company into the world of non-profit performing art.
That same year, Boom Kat took a leap from episodic storytelling to full-length narrative storytelling, with an adaptation of
Rudyard Kipling’s The Jungle Book. The Jungle Book premiered to full houses at the Miles Memorial Playhouse in Santa Monica.
In 2009, Boom Kat delved even deeper into the intricacies of narrative storytelling with NeverWonderLand,
an original work which explored how the two children became the iconic characters that we know today.
