In this episode, Hunter and Shaun discuss the second half of Alice by Heart.
According to the Robert W. Wilson MCC Theater Space:
TONY® and GRAMMY® award-winning creators of SPRING AWAKENING, STEVEN SATER and DUNCAN SHEIK, reunite for their new musical ALICE BY HEART, inspired by Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, and directed and co-written by JESSIE NELSON (WAITRESS).
“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 world premiere musical encourages us all to celebrate the transformational power of the imagination, even in the harshest of times.”
