TV: INTO THE WOODS Opening Night at Open Air Theatre
By: Robert Diamond Aug. 17, 2010
Into the Woods takes the stories of The Brothers Grimm and gives them a dark and humorous twist. The popular tales of Red Riding Hood, Jack (of Beanstalk fame), Cinderella and Rapunzel are interwoven with that of the Baker and his Wife and their quest to have a child. However this re-telling goes beyond ‘happily ever after' as the familiar characters find themselves in unfamiliar circumstances and hopes and dreams are questioned and revisited.
In the heart of one of the city's favourite parks, the Open Air Theatre is a much-loved tradition of London life. The wonderfully unpredictable nature of outdoor theatre makes each visit extraordinary and thrilling.
