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"?
