SOLD OUT – Into the Woods, 7:30 p.m. ($28)
Ohrstrom-Bryant Theatre
Music and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim
Book by James Lapine
James Lapine and Stephen Sondheim鈥檚 modern classic brings together favorite fairy tale characters to create a musical that is both timeless and relevant.
Both enchanting and touching, the Tony Award-winning book and score follows multiple storylines that merge: a baker and his wife, who wish to have a child; Cinderella, who wishes to attend the King鈥檚 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鈥檚 curse, the two set off on a journey to break the curse. Everyone鈥檚 wish is granted, but the consequences of their actions return to haunt them with disastrous results.
One of Sondheim鈥檚 most popular works, 鈥淚nto the Woods鈥 is a musically sophisticated show infused with touches of dark comedy, and featuring unforgettable songs and fantastical design elements that create a magical and mystical world.
