INTO THE WOODS and happy ever after!

The company that brought you the critically
acclaimed production of LES MISERABLES (Yardley
Hall, summer 2013) and the Internationally
award-winning production of BIG RIVER (Kauffman
Center, summer 2014), now brings you the
incredible Tony Award Winning, and Golden Globe
and Academy Award nominated, INTO THE WOODS!
(Music and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim. Book by
James Lapine.)

As the result of the curse of a once-beautiful
witch, a baker and his wife are childless.
Three days before the rise of a blue moon, they
venture into the forest to find the ingredients
that will reverse the spell and restore the
witch's beauty: a milk-white cow, hair as
yellow as corn, a blood-red cape, and a slipper
of gold. During their journey, they meet
Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, Rapunzel
and Jack, each one on a quest to fulfill a
wish. Everyone's wishes are granted, but the
consequences of their actions return to haunt
them later with disastrous results.

Appropriate for Middle School and up.
