Into The Woods
Truly Enchanting...Each performance - and I'm reluctant to single out individuals - brims with wit and magnetic feeling.
Ben Brantley, New York Times
Why see Into The Woods?
Not All Fairytales Have A Happy Ending
A darkly witty show, Into the Woods delves into the fairytale world created by the Grimm brothers. With cameos and vignettes by Cinderella, Jack (of the beanstalk), Little Red Riding Hood, Rapunzel and more making an appearance in the tale of a simple baker and his wife, who have been cursed by the Wicked Witch. As the plot unfolds, we see the consequences of a wish and how they can start of being everything you ever dreamed of, and evolve into the reason for your despair.
A much-cherished entry in the Broadway canon, Into The Woods first appeared on Broadway in 1986 starring Bernadette Peters and has been revived many times since; it even saw its transfer to the big screen starring Anna Kendrick, Johnny Depp and Meryl Streep.
The moral of this story? Sadly we all must come to terms with growing up, and happily ever after was only ever just a story.

CAROLYN MILLER
BRILLIANT
A stunning, fresh and innovative version of the
classic Into The Woods musical. The 11 cast
members did the job with no costumes or sets,
just talent beyond excellent telling a
complicated, deep and dark tale through the
complicated and challenging music of Stephen
Sondheim. The entire production was sheer
genius. ... Read more

Love me some Milky White!
I had no doubt I would be mesmerized by this stellar cast but the big surprise is that I fell in love with the brilliance of James Ortiz’ puppet creations, especially Milky White. Initially marveling at the grace and dexterity with which Kennedy Kanagawa moves Milky, I soon realized that Kennedy WAS Milky White, a heartwarming achievement that endeared both the actor and the cow to all the audience. ...

The cow steals the show!
No lie. The human characters have been perfectly cast, all the way down to third spear-chucker on the left. Their performances of this beautiful piece will rend your heart. But Kennedy Kanagawa brings to life an ear-twitching, eye-blinking, milk-deficient, udderly adorable animal character without which the witch will fail in her quest. Who woulda thunk that this stand-up gal would be so crucial to the heart of the story? Do not miss this production - the seeing of it is a tale you will tell to your children. ... Read more
