Alice By Heart

From the Tony® and Grammy® award-winning creators of Spring Awakening!

Students from Rose Bruford College’s Actor Musicianship programme, in collaboration with technical, design and management courses present this coming-of-age retelling of Alice 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.
