One of the main relationships between Alice in Wonderland and Alice in Sunderland is how both characters go through similar mood swings. Both Alice and the actor in Sunderland go from high to low in seconds. They both question themselves too often. For example, when Alice meets Tweedledum and Tweedledee they easily make her cry by saying that she might not be real and just a part of the Red King's dream. Yet she doesn't cry when faced with other strange incidences. And the actor breaks down several times during his performance in Sunderland. One moment he'll be performing his play, and the next he's questioning his age or the play itself. Both books are filled with breakdowns.
