Excerpt from Alice, and Other Fairy Plays for Children Like most plays of this kind, these fairy dramas were originally written to supply a home demand. They are now presented to the public in a collective form, a dramatic version of Mr. Lewis Carroll's Alice being added to the original plays. I have to express my sincerest gratitude to Mr. Lewis Carroll for the permission to dramatise his charming story, which he most courteously granted to me. Wherever the dramatic exigences demanded inevitable alterations or additions, I earnestly hope these have been executed in the true fairy spirit of the original.
