Praise

Alice In Wonderland is very well done! Bravo!” Catherine Rinella, host and producer, Midnight Audio Theatre

“Great work! Love the lush sound design—knowing how ‘classic’ the original is, I appreciated (their) ability to reimagine the tale for the audio format.” Fred Greenhalgh, host of the Radio Drama Revival podcast

“The zaniness of Carroll’s kaleidoscopic story of Alice is realized through music tied to action (particularly shrinking and growing), the voice work of Barbara Rosenblat playing (among others) both the Cheshire Cat and the Queen of Hearts, and enhancing background sounds, such as ocean waves and bird calls when Alice’s tears become a sea.” Library Journal (starred audio review)

“Award-winning voice actor Barbara Rosenblat leads an able cast in giving proper nineteenth-century accents and voices to all our favorite iconic characters…Energetic newcomer Georgia Lee Schultz provides Alice with an updated and nicely understandable American accent and is especially good with the many whispered asides that stitch this adapted version together…It is always refreshing to hear the language and intended story of the original.” AudioFile

“Schultz’s Alice was the fulcrum of the entire revival as she not only narrated the story but communicated her thoughts to listeners in asides. It was a tribute to her acting skill that she came across as a level-headed personality, someone who remained distinctly unfazed by what was happening around her. Hence her ability to treat the entire journey as a dream at the end.” Radio Drama Reviews Online
