Sondheim and Lapine present a cock-eyed view of everyone's favorite fairytale characters in this hysterical take on the Brothers Grimm.
INTO THE WOODS JUNIOR. presents a new view of everyone's favorite
fairy tale characters in an amusingly different take on the stories of the Brothers
Grimm. The musical follows a Baker and his Wife who learn they've been cursed
with childlessness by the Witch next door. The couple embarks on a quest –
swindling, deceiving and stealing from such already-victimized characters such as
Cinderella, Little Red Ridding Hood, Rapunzel and Jack (fresh off the beanstalk!)
– to get the special objects required to break the spell. However, it doesn’t just
end “happily ever after” as each character must now face the consequences of
his/her decision.
