To celebrate the musical's 40th anniversary, South Coast Reportory recreates INTO THE WOODS with a decisively different approach, one that both entices and, at times, triggers an uneasy vibe (at first) that seems to have permeated out from the show's darker second half. Admittedly, something felt off while watching the show unfold in its new staging—which, in the end, proved to be the desired jolt it wanted from us all along. Selected as its first show for its new 2026-2027 season, this aesthetically-reinvisioned production continues extended performances through October 18, 2026.

Treks to New York for this self-proclaimed theater nerd always includes two things: Seeing as many shows as possible and daily visits to Schmackerys for their delicious cookies.

Planning is essential to know what shows have matinees on Thursday and what show are not dark on Sunday evenings.
