A world-wide stage sensation, Stephen Sondheim’s Into the Woods has won multiple awards including an Olivier Award for Best Musical Revival in 2010.

Into the Woods is witty, dark and intelligent, mashing-up the stories of fairytale characters including Little Red Riding Hood, Jack and the Beanstalk, Rapunzel and Cinderella, to name but a few! With all the characters focused on the same goal of getting their wish, the woods cast a giant shadow over them, as they each go Into the Woods to make their dreams come true. With great cunning and a few storylines that you definitely won’t find in the original fairytales, at first they succeed. Until, that is, the Giant’s Wife returns to avenge her husband and living ‘happily ever after’ starts to seem about as likely as Cinderella putting in for some cleaning overtime... Everyone will have to go to Into the Woods one more time... A complex metaphor for choosing the right path, Into the Woods will take you on a journey in which you will discover more than just a handful of magic beans!
