Hello, everyone!
Well, while perusing the Internet, I happened upon the following article:
'Step Through the Looking Glass
It is an article about a high school play taking on Alice in Wonderland... with a steampunk twist. Seriously, check it out; these kids are way more awesome than I was in high school. Alice in Wonderland in Steampunk involved complicated costume design, set design, and special effects. I haven't seen it, but I'm impressed.
Anyway, I'm not just posting about this high school play, though it is badass. I'm posting it because Alice and Wonderland seems to marry very well with the steampunk genre... what do you think?
So, let's discuss! What do you think about steampunk being included in Alice in Wonderland? Like 'em together, or think they should see other people?
And, while we're at it, share any Alice in Wonderland steampunk images/websites/anything else you can find while you're here! Let's explore this genre a little, shall we?

Victoria Whitechapel Yes I would say so I love the Victorian era and when I think about it Alice in Wonderland comes to mind everything about Alice in the book how she dresses how she acts is very Victorian you could try and modernize the story but it would not be the same. To me the Victorian era is what gives the story its setting and charm. Steam Punk would be a very cool way to put a new twist on the story but keep the Victorian charm intact biggrin but that is just my opinion.
I see... like, it's a 'modern' twist/theme, but it still seems antiquated because the genre in general is still seen as more old-fashioned compared to our modern ideals?

Victoria Whitechapel I agree steam punk is really kind of perfect if you want to give Alice in Wonderland a new face but keep the same feeling as the original. It is such a great idea! cat_mrgreen
