The fantasy series is set in Victorian England and features a girl called Alice, played by actress Sophie Lowe. She is a troubled girl and the memories of her first love with the handsome and mysterious Cyrus (Peter Gadiot) are painful. The Knave of Hearts (Michael Socha) and the White Rabbit (John Lithgow) are expected to save her from a "doomed fate," and together the three will take a "tumble down the rabbit hole to this Wonderland where nothing is impossible."

According to ABC's description of "Once Upon a Time in Wonderland," Alice tells "a tale of a strange new land that exists on the other side of a rabbit hole.

Right before the operation is set to take place, she is rescued by the Knave of Hearts who takes her to the rabbit who informs her that her true love Cyrus is still alive. As the trio then jumps into the portal returning to Wonderland, Alice sets out on a quest to find him but the villainous Jafar and the Red Queen have other plans for her."
