Jocelyn in Wonderland


Tired little Jocelyn, in her National Health specs, falls asleep in the garden and wakes up in Wonderland in this amateur re-telling of Lewis Carroll's classic.

In this re-imagining of Alice in Wonderland, Jocelyn, in her national health glasses, follows the White Rabbit, drinks from a bottle, becomes huge and meets a hookah-puffing 'caterpillar' before exploring a secret garden somewhere in Chichester. There she has tea with the Mad Hatter, encounters a real mouse and a real cat sitting up a tree. Then, alone in the woods, Jocelyn is ambushed by Robin Hood before being woken by her friends back in home in the garden.
