Dreamchild: A New Musical
Libretto by Hunter Bird and Vinny Stodder
Music by Vinny Stodder

When the world fell into Lewis Carrol's magical world of Wonderland, no one suspected that Wonderland's Alice was a real girl. In 1932, the real Alice, ALICE HARGREAVES, is brought to America to celebrate Lewis Carrol's 100th Birthday. America turns its worried face to ALICE to inspire the nation, just as her story did so many years ago. But, as reporters begin to ask questions, MRS. HARGREAVES is forced to question WHY Lewis Carrol loved her. Why was SHE his Alice?
