From the composer of the award-winning musical and film Sweeny Todd comes this Tony-winning, fantastic, fractured fairy tale about a Baker and his wife, who've been cursed by the next door Witch to be childless. She'll let them out of it if they procure Red Riding Hood's cape, a tress of Rapunzel's hair, Jack's (of Beanstalk fame) milk-white cow, and Cinderella's gold slipper. So, off they go Into the Woods where they find "living happily ever after" not as easy as it sounds! With a cast of the finest singers and actors led by New York director Don Bovingloh (he directed 2006's Funny Girl). Songs include "Children Will Listen," "Giants in the Sky," "No One Is Alone," and "Agony." Irreverent, tongue-in-cheek. Not recommended for younger children.
