Adventures in Wonderland follows Alice on her journey through Lewis Carroll's iconic book. Each movement explores Alice's progression through various scenes:

  2. The Garden & the Cheshire Cat - Alice finally enters the beautiful garden and meets the mysterious Cheshire Cat.
  3. A Mad Tea Party - Alice sits down at a "tea for too" party where a Mad Hatter recites "Twinkle twinkle little bat."​
  4. Off With Her Head! - Alice confronts the Red Queen and her procession of marching playing cards.
