See Trike Theatre’s Shows
Trike Theatre is Northwest Arkansas’s only professional theatre for youth and families. Our plays are performed in a no-shush zone! Meaning? If some of our youngest audience members get enthused mid-show, we actually like it and roll with it.

alice’s adventures in wonderland
Presented by Trike’s Resident Acting Company (TRAC) students.
It’s a very ordinary and rather boring day for Alice until she spots a White Rabbit with a pocket watch whizzing through a world that’s beyond imagination! Her insatiable curiosity draws her into a madcap adventure in which she meets remarkable characters like the Caterpillar, Talking Flowers, a Duchess and her Cook, a Gryphon and Mock Turtle, a Mad Hatter and a March Hare. When Alice finally catches up with the White Rabbit in the Queen’s Court, she’s in for her biggest adventure of all. The wonder-filled world of Alice is a fantastic journey for the adventurous of any age.
