Into the Woods
Music and Lyrics by Stephen Sondheim

Into the Woods brings well-known fairytale characters to musical life, interwoven with the story of a baker and his wife, whose longing for a child is thwarted by a mischievous witch. Stephen Sondheim’s songs, seamlessly melded to James Lapine’s text, are perfect expressions of the complications of living in modern society and the difficult choices we encounter on the paths of our lives. Into the Woods premiered on Broadway in 1987, winning three Tony Awards. It has been a beloved favorite on stages throughout the United States and around the world since it opened.
‘Into The Woods’ will be presented on Friday and Saturday, October 11, 12, 18 and 19 at 7:30 pm and Sunday, October 13 and 20 at 3 pm.
The performances will be at Blue Ridge Community College, Black Box Theater.
