NEVERWONDER: THE MUSICAL Announced As Part of Toronto Fringe Festival
NeverWonder is a Queer and Mad love story following Alice and Wendy as they meet in an asylum and bond over their shared fantastical, yet traumatic childhoods.
What if Wendy (Neverland) and Alice (Wonderland) met?
NeverWonder is a Queer and Mad love story following Alice and Wendy as they meet in an asylum and bond over their shared fantastical, yet traumatic childhoods - but they have to go back for one last quest! A tale of survivor solidarity through the lens of Mad Pride.
In 2016, the playwright/composer of the show had a thought: there are so many parallels with the universes of Neverland and Wonderland - what if they were two sides of the same coin?
NeverWonder features a variety of artists all LGBTQ+, most of whom are disabled and/or MMIND, including Deaf actress Tamyka Bullen, who made her acting debut in 2018 in the Sound Off Festival; Toronto musicians and singers such as Tallan Alexander, and Rhys Whitham (Toronto band Cloudage); Canadian musical theatre's Peter Mundell; Dalton Bolton ("A Night At The Zoomies"); TV's Jess L. Callaghan (TLN's Emerge, and Idaho Productions' Accused), and Shayna Burns (co-founders of Third Wheel Theatre).
