Welcome to The Alice Archive - a collection of material relating to Ant and Richard Scott's musical which was staged at the Leeds Playhouse in 1984.
Once upon a time there was a girl called Alice but, instead of falling down a rabbit hole, she got hitched up on a computer date. This technologically superior 'Alice' is the heroine of a new rock musical written by Richard Scott, a social psychologist, and Anthony Phillips, who hates being tagged as 'founder member of the rock group Genesis' but was. Now he is relishing the very different problems of writing a musical. (From a press preview article)
Alice was staged between 22nd March and 14th April 1984. Prior to the staging of the show, a press reception was held to announce it on 20th February 1984 at the Theatrical Management Association in London.
