Into the Woods
Be careful what you wish for...
March 28 - April 13, 2025
Journey into the enchanting world of fairy tales as they collide in the Tony Award-winning Into the Woods, written by legendary musical theatre composer Stephen Sondheim. This bewitching tale follows familiar characters like Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, and Jack (of beanstalk fame) as they venture into the mysterious woods to fulfill their deepest wishes. But as their desires intertwine, consequences unfold in unexpected ways as the characters explore the complexities of wishes and the responsibility of storytelling.
Into the Woods has a runtime of 2 hours and 45 minutes with one intermission and has been assigned a rating of PG-13 by MTI (Musical Theatre International). It is worth noting that the characters and stories that are familiar to most audiences through Disney productions, will not be represented in this version. The musical focuses on the original Brothers Grimm versions of the stories which tend to be “darker” and less “happy ending” focused.
