Plot:
INTO THE WOODS is based on the authentic version of
fairy tales by the Brothers Grimm. Sondheim and Lapine have
woven a wonderful blend of music, dialogue and favorite storybook
characters together into a spellbinding tale of magic and
laughter. They all go INTO THE WOODS on a quest for
their wish, certain that they will be "happy ever after".
This crew of classic fairy tale characters with a multi-layered
plot, ends "happily ever after" in Act One. But
Act Two explores what "happily ever after" really
means! What will happen in the "ever after"?
