From the Tony and Grammy award-winning creators of Spring Awakening, Steven Sater & Duncan Sheik, and co-written by Jessie Nelson, Alice by Heart is a touching musical that encourages the celebration of imagination, storytelling, and love.
Tumble down the rabbit hole to London, 1941 where fifteen year-old Alice Spencer seeks to escape the Blitz of World War II and save her dearest friend, Alfred. Inspired by their favorite childhood book “Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland,” she uses the power of imagination to transcend reality and take us on a journey into Wonderland. The familiar story both comforts and challenges Alice as she explores the bloom of first love, faces the loss of childhood, and seeks the courage to carry on.
