Alice by Heart is a poignant 2019 musical that reimagines Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland against the backdrop of the London Blitz. In a Tube station shelter, young Alice and her friend Alfred turn to their beloved book to escape the chaos above, discovering within its pages a world where first love, devastating loss, and the boundless power of imagination collide.

With its evocative pop-rock score and a tone described by The New York Times as “darkly whimsical,” Alice by Heart invites audiences to journey through a Wonderland transformed by the realities of war, grief, and the bittersweet passage from youth to adulthood.
