About The Show
One of Stephen Sondheim’s most popular works, Into the Woods is a captivating and whimsical musical that weaves together beloved fairy tales into a dark and enchanting narrative. The story begins with a childless baker and his wife who embark on a quest to break a witch’s curse, sending them into the heart of the woods, where they encounter iconic characters like Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, and Jack from Jack and the Beanstalk. As their paths intertwine, dreams are realized, but the consequences of wishes take unexpected and often dire turns.
