Into The Woods
Fresh from a critically acclaimed run at The Bridge Theatre, Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine’s “stunning” (The Times) Into the Woods transfers to the West End this September.
Directed by Jordan Fein, with set and costume designed by Tom Scutt, this joyful, witty and beautiful new production has been hailed as “a triumphant musical mash‑up of fairytales” (The Standard).
We all know how the story begins. But what happens after it ends?
Once upon a time…
The Baker and his wife. A Witch with a curse. A boy and his cow. A girl in a red cloak. A maiden with long flowing hair. A servant covered in cinders. All journey deep into the dark woods.
To sell the cow
To visit the mother
To see the king
To lift the spell
As the adventure unfolds and paths entwine, wishes are made, slippers are lost, beanstalks take flight and new friendships are forged – revealing that life beyond ‘Happily ever after’ can still be full of magic, even when there’s darkness.
Step into the woods this September. But watch out for the wolf.
