London, 1941. Young Alice and her friend Alfred seek shelter from the bombing raids in a subway station. She has her favorite book with her, Lewis Carroll's "Adventures in Wonderland." The story, which she knows by heart, helps her cope with the perilous situation. Alice follows the White Rabbit into Wonderland, where she meets characters like the Mad Hatter, the Queen of Hearts, and the Cheshire Cat. In this world opened up to her by literature and imagination, she processes pain and grief, experiences love, and finds the courage to look to the future. The Tony and Grammy Award-winning creators of "Spring Awakening" touch the listener with their new work, which combines depth and lightness, featuring dreamy songs.

Alice by heart: by Duncan Sheik and Steven Sater

Wartburg

Good and evil! The scientist Dr. Jekyll has made it his life's work to research the separation of these two sides of man. The experiments he conducts on himself lead to the splitting of his personality and the creation of Mr. Hyde. When the experiment gets out of control, the researcher is increasingly dominated by Mr. Hyde and evil, until it comes to a relentless battle with himself for life and death. The abysmal story moves as a great musical by award-winning Broadway composer Frank Wildhorn with sometimes rocking, sometimes romantic music and impressive choreography. Eerily touching!
