"A game of chess, at once dreamlike and logical-strategic, leads us through the mirror to the game Lewis Carroll imagined for Alice.(...) This new creation, with its kaleidoscope title, is one more piece in the puzzle defying the obvious, dear to the choreographer, and this A like Alice, facing her twin reflection, unambiguously reveals the inspirational argument."
