An ambivalent Cinderella? A blood-thirsty Little Red Ridinghood? A
Prince Charming with a roving eye? A Witch...who raps? They're all
among the cockeyed characters in a href="http://www.mtishows.com/show_detail.asp?showid=000106#"James Lapine/a
and a href="http://www.mtishows.com/show_detail.asp?showid=000106#"Stephen Sondheim/a'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 span style="font-style: italic;"The Princess Bride/span becomes a moving lesson about community responsibility and the stories we tell our children. brbr One of a href="http://www.mtishows.com/show_detail.asp?showid=000106#"Sondheim/a's most popular works, strongINTO THE WOODS /strongis a timeless yet relevant piece and a rare modern classic.
