What do you do when the one thing you want is the only thing out of your reach? Go to the woods! INTO THE WOODS, the everlasting musical from Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine, brings your favorite fairytales together in a Brothers Grimm mash-up that looks past “happily ever after”, revealing the messy complications of life in an avalanche of bad deeds, disappointment, adultery, and death. Winner of five Tony Awards, including Best Book of a Musical (1988), Best Original Score (1988), and Best Revival of a Musical (2002), INTO THE WOODS builds on the magic of these classic fairytales, creating a beautiful story of what’s right, what’s good, and the tales we tell our children.
“A wonderful muddle of Grimm fairy tales . . . extraordinary music and lyrics, subtle yet enormously complex.” -L.A. Times
