Yes, bubbles: the new evil drug. :)
You could argue for the use of the hookah, but it would be more tiring. In an age where smokers and smoking paraphernalia are the new leprosy, I'd go with the bubbles. My predecessor in the Troupe did Alice, and I believe nothing was used. I'd have gone with the bubble pipe too. Though I agree with Jo, whatever you do, it should fit with the overall design motif, whether that's selective realism, deconstructivism, or steam punk (look how I'm learning from my awesome PDI with Jo Lane!)

Subject: Hookah in Alice in Wonderland??
My principal wanted me to get a consensus of theatre teachers about
the school- appropriate use by the caterpillar of a hookah in Alice
and Wonderland. He would like to be able to say "it is standard
practice" if I use it and he gets flack for it. If you didn't use it,
what did you do? Thanks,
