The “Into The Woods” book was written by James Lapine and the music and lyrics were created by Stephen Sondheim. The Brothers Grimm hit the stage with an epic fairytale about wishes, family and the choices we make. Mr. Lapine and Mr. Sondheim take everyone’s favorite storybook characters and bring them together for a timeless yet relevant piece and rare modern classic. The TONY Award-winning book and score are both enchanting and touching. The story follows a Baker and his wife who wish to have a child, Cinderella who wishes to attend the King’s Festival, and Jack who wishes his cow would give milk. When the Baker and his wife learn that they cannot have a child because of a Witch’s curse, the two set off on a journey to break the curse. Everyone’s wish is granted, but the consequences of their actions return to haunt them later with disastrous results.
