Into The Woods at Lakeland Players

"Happily Ever After" has never been so complicated. The musical Into the Woods, by Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine takes everyone’s favorite storybook characters Little Red Riding Hood, Jack (from beanstalk fame), a Witch, Rapunzel, Cinderella, the Baker and his wife, and a handsome prince or two, as they invade one another's stories and find themselves tangled in a web of unexpected consequences. Using these famous fairy tales, it explores the consequences of desires, the complexities of parent-child relationships, and the necessity of community. The characters find that "wishes come true, not free" This musical, filled with spectacular Stephen Sondheim songs, shows us that actions have repercussions, that, "no one is alone" in their struggles, and true maturity involves taking responsibility and caring for others. Only together can we defeat the wolves and giants of the world. Into The Woods has a stunning, unforgettable score featuring "No One is Alone,"Children Will Listen," and "Giants in the Sky." This iconic show will enchant, and delight!
