This is definitely one that gets referenced semi-regularly. This piece really resonated with a lot of people. And I get why. An 11-member ensemble of brilliant dancers guiding audiences through multiple rooms and environments while we all follow (or lead) Nichole Canuso as “Alice” through an adventure to retrieve a memory. Or a series of memories. We sang original songs created by Mike Kiley and James Sugg, in an landscape carefully crafted and curated by Jenn Goettner. The piece was a kind, considerate, beautiful, immersive experience for many.

Among the many hundreds of things I hold dear about Wandering Alice, one very important one is the beginning of a loooonnng inside joke I shared with Dito van Reigersberg. Rest well my friend. Miss you forever.
