In honor of the life of one of Broadway’s most innovative musical geniuses, Stephen Sondheim, Short North Stage reimagines this audience favorite. Exploring the intersection of fairy tales and life beyond “Happily Ever After,” this complex and beautiful examination of human behavior is brought to life with Sondheim’s witty lyrics and James Lapine’s innovative storytelling. The story follows a Baker and his wife, who wish to have a child; Cinderella, who wishes to attend the King's Festival; and Jack, who wishes his cow would give milk. When the Baker and his wife learn that they cannot have a child because of a Witch's curse, the two set off on a journey to break the curse. That journey leads all the characters into places they never imagined. With so many relevant themes we are reminded that “Children Will Listen” and that “No One is Alone.”
Short North Stage is at 1187 North High Street, Columbus, OH.
Short North Stage is a professional theater company dedicated to bringing first-class live performance to the Short North Arts District. Residing in a distinctive performing arts venue, the historic Garden Theater, Short North Stage hosts and produces performances weekly, ranging from Broadway classics and edgy off-Broadway musicals, comedies and dramas to cabarets, dance and everything in between. With three performance venues within the Garden Theater, including the original main auditorium, the intimate Green Room, and Ethel's Stage Left Lounge, each show brings a truly unique experience. Our goal is to grow into a regional, and eventually, national showcase of music-driven works – celebrating familiar, reinventing less well-known, and nurturing new works. With the dynamics of the Short North moving uptown and The Ohio State University sphere of influence spreading south, the blocks bridging the two districts are ripe for revitalization. Short North Stage is helping lead the metamorphosis.
