If you go down to the park this Father's Day you're in for a big surprise - a Mad Hatter's Tea Party hosted by National Youth Ballet and Wayne Sleep.

The UK's leading dance company will be taking over Battersea Park and inviting you to bring a picnic and do a pirouette as it showcases Wayne Sleep's Wonderland - Scenes from Alice.

The youth dance company will also be premiering Rainbow Bear as you spread your feast on a gigantic, oversized gingham table cloth and be entertained by Alice, her friends and a white rabbit - who will be lending a dancing paw to anyone who fancies a hop, skip and a jump.

Sleep will be there too encouraging the children to pointe their toes with the dad wearing the wackiest hat winning a set of tickets to see National Youth Ballet perform.

Wayne Sleep's Wonderland - Scenes from Alice, Battersea Park (head for the foundations), June 20, 12-3pm, free.
