Through The Looking Glass:

The Burlesque Alice In Wonderland

Developed, Directed, and Produced by Lily Verlaine & Jasper McCann

Artistic Direction & Principal Choreography by Lily Verlaine

Music Composition Direction, Songs, Book & Lyrics by Jasper McCann

Through The Looking Glass is Verlaine & McCann’s “incomparable... colorful and entertaining” (Seattle Gay News) re-imagination of Lewis Carroll’s classic tale of nonsense and fantasy.

It features top-notch dance talent, exciting choreography by the classically-trained Lily Verlaine, and an original musical score by Jasper McCann, Kate Olson, Michael Owcharuk, and James Chapple, performed live by a jazz-rock sextet, The Aces & 8's.  Inspired by the music of the mid-60's, the arrangements set the mood for dance performances that combine classical ballet and jazz with bawdy burlesque beauty.

 

Lily Verlaine and Jasper McCann are the progenitors of the ‘spectacle of ecdysiastic pageantry!’

Touted throughout the Northwest as the producer’s of Seattle’s best burlesque theatre, Verlaine & McCann have been producing their smash hit shows for the past 17 years to sold out audiences.
