The “trickster” character archetype appears in countless fables spanning thousands of years and has become a central tenant of human storytelling.
Join an expert panel as they discuss their interpretation of the Cheshire Cat as the trickster in Alice’s Adventures In Wonderland and the necessity of mischief, while tracing examples of the archetype through international folklore, classic literature, into the modern world of film, the internet and politics.
