BWW Blog: Greg Hinojosa, Artistic Director of Woodlawn Theatre - There's Much to Love in the WoodsFebruary 11, 2014Into the Woods has always been one of my favorite Sondheim musicals. I love the complicated score, the mysterious, interesting character plots and of course the childhood fairy tales that we grew up hearing when we were children. I love that the 'Woods,' to me, symbolizes 'the world.' These characters are traditional in the sense that they are characters we know and love within the fairy tales, but they get tossed into a more real world after they discover that not everything they expected from their 'ever after' dream is really a good thing.
