Young Performers Institute Stages INTO THE WOODS, Beg. Today
By: BWW News Desk
The Young Performers Insititute presents its 2013 summer musicals: INTO THE WOODS JR and INTO THE WOODS.
Directed by Nicki Heskin, Co-Directed by Max Herzfeld, INTO THE WOODS JR runs July 20th to 28th. The older performers - age 14 through college - will present INTO THE WOODS by Steven Sondheim, directed by Jill B. Gerber, July 19th to 28th, 2013. ?(Note: Into the Woods Jr is a shorter version of the original show using only Act 1.)The Brothers Grimm "go Broadway" as Sondheim and Lapine offer up a cockeyed fairy tale where all of your favorite characters- Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, Jack (and his beanstalk) and The Witch- meet and interact on their journeys. INTO THE WOODS JR. showcases an ensemble of talented singers and actors. The sophisticated score has been adapted to make it easier- though still challenging -for young performers. INTO THE WOODS JR. is a funny and engaging way to get young people to think about the stories with which they've grown up and the ethical issues raised therein.
