The Story
Are you with the Red Queen or the White Queen? Nordo’s spin on Through the Looking Glass takes place on one magical night where the opposing sides of Wonderland come together at a dinner party.
But when Alice enters through the looking glass and crashes the guest list, a game of chess turns into a battle royale.
