Playhouse South Announces INTO THE WOODS 8/12-21
Playhouse South, A Community Theatre is excited to announce, Into The Woods coming to the stage at Northpark Amphitheatre in Springboro, OH on Aug 12-14 and 19-21, 2011 at 7:00 PM
An ambivalent Cinderella? A blood-thirsty Little Red Riding hood? A Prince Charming with a roving eye? A Witch...who raps? They're all among the cockeyed characters in James Lapine and Stephen Sondheim's fractured fairy tale. When a Baker and his Wife learn they've been cursed with childlessness by the Witch next door, they embark on a quest for the special objects required to break the spell, swindling, lying to and stealing from Cinderella, Little Red, Rapunzel and Jack (the one who climbed the beanstalk). Everyone's wish is granted at the end of Act One, but the consequences of their actions return to haunt them later, with disastrous results. What begins a lively irreverent fantasy in the style of "The Princess Bride" becomes a moving lesson about community responsibility and the stories we tell our children.
Admission is free for all ages, donations gratefully accepted. For more information, please visit www.playhousesouth.org.
