The world of twisted fairytales comes to Layton this fal! The Tony award winning musical "Into the Woods" performs at On Pitch Performing Arts October 4th-19th. Auditions will be held July 16th and 17th.

"Into the Woods" features a musical score written by the 8 time Tony award winning composer Stephen Sondheim. The show contains Sondheim's signature blend of complex music and distinctive lyrics, combining to create an artistically unique musical with a powerful message.

Rufener says to prospective auditioners: "Please do not type yourself! I'm actively seeking diverse performers. Actors of all ages, ethnicities, and backgrounds should audition!"
