Be careful what you wish for, as the line between reality and fantasy blurs when an epic fairytale comes to life – with real world consequences.
In a quest to reverse a curse placed on them by the witch next door and fulfill their deepest hope, a baker and his wife venture into the woods to find four magical ingredients. On their journey, they encounter Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, Rapunzel, and Jack, each on a quest to fulfill a wish of their own. Through peculiar paths and twisting trails, characters soon learn the complications of what follows happily-ever-after.
With its masterful combination of catchy tunes, witty lyrics, and dark humour, Into The Woods is a timeless classic about wishes, family, and the choices we make. Join us for this mystical and magical musical adventure.
Recommended for ages 13 and up.
While magical, humorous, and uplifting, this production explores darker, more complex aspects of Brothers Grimm fables, including scenes of violence and death, child loss and neglect, infidelity, and characters facing moral dilemmas.
