The Wonderland Challenge for Cancer Research UK returns!
During the first Covid lockdown, voice actor Brad Shaw came up with the idea for the Wonderland Challenge. This was a delightful project where voice actors donate their time to read 1 minute sections of Lewis Carroll’s ‘Alice in Wonderland’ – which Brad then skilfully edited together to form the complete audiobook. Over 150 actors and voice actors took part, including a smattering of celebrities such as Michael Palin, Patricia Hodge, Christopher Biggins and Griff Rhys Jones. Together, they raised over £5000 for Cancer Research UK. If you missed the original – you can listen to the podcast here
Fast forward to 2023, and the challenge is running again – this time we will be recording ‘Alice Through the Looking Glass’. I will be joining a bunch of wonderful voice actors, plus a few celebrities including Phyllis Logan (Downton Abbey) and Kevin McNally (Pirates of the Caribbean) to read my one minute chunk of the classic novel, which will be released in December.
Look out for me in Chapter 9 – doing the voice of a frog amongst other things!
