London’s Royal Opera House continues to head to movie theatres with Tony winner Christopher Wheeldon’s production of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. The Royal Ballet presentation will screen in major U.S. markets December 5 as part of ROH’s Cinema Series.

The cast also features Lauren Cuthbertson as Alice, as well as Federico Bonelli, James Hay, Christopher Saunders, Steven McRae, Fernando Montaño, Gary Avis, Paul Kay, Romany Pajdak, Kristen McNally, Tristan Dyer, David Yudes, Meaghan Grace Hinkis, Beatriz Stix-Brunell, and Harry Churches.
