A few years ago Alice in Wonderland attracted the attention of the Manhattan Project but an avant-grade sort of theater group headed by a guy named Andre Gregory in Manhattan.

I don't know anything about THE GEORGE FAISON UNIVERSAL DANCE EXPERIENCE, except that it's opening tonight at 8 at the Loeb, and also has performances tomorrow and Saturday.
Beckett's HAPPY DAYS is opening at the Loeb Ex tonight at 8:30.
