What is significant about the title of Alice in Wonderland?

Answer 1

Lewis Carroll's novel Alice's Adventures in Wonderlandhas been adapted for the stage numerous times.

The play versions follow the same story as the book:

A little girl called Alice is surprised one day when she sees a white rabbit with a watch, wearing a waistcoat. She follows the rabbit into its warren, which leads her into a magical place called Wonderland. She sees a beautiful garden through a tiny door which she would like to visit, but she is too big to fit through the door, so she can't. She finds foods and drinks which cause her to shrink and grow, and she meets an array of bewildering characters, who are often quite rude. Once she has learned to control her size, she finds the little door again, and enters the lovely garden, where she meets the Queen of Hearts, who she plays at croquet. After meeting some more people, she finds herself at a ridiculous trial, where nothing makes any sense. She grows angry with the silliness of the Wonderland people and confronts them. They attack her, only for her to suddenly wake up and realise that her adventures in Wonderland were just a dream.

Answer 2

Alice falls down a hole, and goes to Wonderland. I guess you could say it's a foreshadowing of what's to come.
