While Kokandy Productions’ ALICE BY HEART has some lovely performances, the musical itself is far less imaginative than its ALICE IN WONDERLAND-inspired title suggests. Set during World War II, Duncan Sheik, Steven Sater, and Jessie Nelson’s show finds the titular Alice ostensibly in a British bunker avoiding the air raids (though, based on her bunker companions, the space could also be either an orphanage or an asylum — the book doesn’t make it clear.) Alice, in denial about her best friend Alfred’s terminal tuberculosis, decides to descend into Wonderland so that the pair might have one last adventure. The show is so titled because she’s memorized the entire novel ALICE IN WONDERLAND. Once Alice and Alfred descend “Down The Hole,” he morphs into the White Rabbit. It’s one of many on-the-nose choices that Sheik and Nelson’s book contains; the White Rabbit is running out of time, as is Alfred.

Noises Off remains the hardest to perform play ever written, as well as one of the easiest and most fun to watch. The Play That Goes Wrong tried to surpass it, but it can't be done. Playwright Michael Frayn's 1982 play could be called a love letter to theatre people if it weren't the play that threatens to undermine their work because the play within the play that nestles inside it foils their ability to stay wrong. Want to laugh? Keegan's production runs through September 1.
