Into the Woods

About the Show

The Tony Award-winning musical that is based on fairy tales made famous by the Brothers Grimm. The Baker and his Wife long to have a child, Cinderella wants to escape from indentured servitude, Jack wants a quiet life with his beloved pet cow, Little Red Riding Hood craves sweet treats, and the Witch wants to restore her youth and beauty. They journey into the woods, colliding and intertwining as they seek to have their wishes granted and live happily ever after.

James Lapine and Stephen Sondheim were one of Broadway’s most influential creative duos, reshaping modern musical theater through their emotionally complex and visually striking collaborations. Lapine, a visionary director and librettist, joined forces with Sondheim, the legendary master of music and lyrics, to create landmark masterpieces like Into the Woods, Passion, and the Pulitzer Prize-winning Sunday in the Park with George.
