August Event: Protesting the Mad Tea Party

It is the year 2015 AD on a fog laden day during the fall. Stonehenge is a monolith of ancient mystery and history to the people of England and all around the world. Tourists pour in from all corners of the globe to see this historic location… but in the mists of dawn, the light pierces the grayness and soon objects can be seen moving.
A man with frazzled hair and a large top hat directs in a long table and various creatures sneak in. The March Hare is in attendance, as is the Door Mouse and the Cheshire Cat. If you look closely enough a few strange animals waddle in along with the White Rabbit, arms laden with tea cups and pots that clatter noisily in the once silent world.
“We must hurry, yes, hurry!” The Rabbit taps his watch as they all scurry, laughing merrily to set up the table and find any chair they can. Yes, the tea part is starting, but the sun is also rising. Tourists will be coming soon. And to find such a sight?
The Head Librarian has cloaked the Mad Tea Party to seem as no more than a group of unruly teenagers throwing a party and singing drunkenly in Wiltshire, England this day… But even that will not stop them from being arrested for disturbing the peace. The clock is ticking… don’t be late.
Your team will enter through the blue white portal and step out into the damp early hours of the morning… catch them. Bring them back. Do not hurt them. They are simply looking for a bit of fun and the perfect place for tea! Careful… their madness is contagious.
[OOC: This is for Team: Protesting the Mad Tea Party only. You will play out your ‘chaos’ and adventures in collecting the Wonderland citizens and returning them home. This is ONLY for team work and getting things done. If you have questions, you can call for Bob the Skull or The Cat to help you. Bob will be running communications. Once you finish the event (or at the same time if you will), patrons may use this time to use portals to enter Modern day Wiltshire and go shopping in a private log. But not in the team log.]
Update! To help the event conclude, options are being provided to help organize the groups. These can be tagged meme style to help give more structure to the tasks. Current threads can be completed and new ones started.
Options
1. Reasoning with Madness. Maybe the patrons can convince the party goers to find a new place to have tea?
2. Out of Refreshments! Now's the time to nab the teapot or the jam and make a break for it! Maybe the Mad Hatter will be too worried about the china to remember that they were supposed to be having a party.
3. Don't get Arrested! Keep the party goers from going to jail! The police are getting impatient with this group of 'teens'. Maybe a patron or two can keep them from trying to arrest the citizens of Wonderland?

4. Clean Up Crew! The Mad Hatter's parties are always messy. Make sure that none of the cutlery wanders off and keep the locals from trying one of those interesting Wonderland cakes!
