Alice by Heart
Written by Steven Sater, Jessie Nelson, & Duncan Sheik
Directed by Daniel Inouye
A young girl takes refuge in a London Tube station during WWII bombing and confronts grief, loss, and love with the help of her favorite book, Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. In the rubble of the London Blitz of World War II, Alice Spencer’s budding teen life is turned upside down, and she and her dear friend Alfred are forced to take shelter in an underground tube station. When the ailing Alfred is quarantined, Alice encourages him to escape with her into their cherished book and journey down the rabbit hole to Wonderland. As they travel through the tale, Alice by Heart explores the poignancy of first love, coming to terms with loss, and finding the courage to move forward. This musical encourages us all to celebrate the transformational power of the imagination, even in the harshest of times.
