“Be careful what you wish for” seems to be the ongoing theme in Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine’s Brothers Grimm inspired musical Into the Woods.

Our fabulous FHODS Youth Section, previously bringing you the classic Bugsy Malone, are delighted to present the Broadway version of Into the Woods by Stephen Sondheim.

The story follows the Baker and his wife who wish to have a child, Cinderella who wishes to go to the King’s Festival, and Jack who wishes his cow would give some milk.  When the Baker and his wife are visited by the neighbourhood witch, who reveals to them that she placed a curse on their family, the two set off on a journey into the woods to reverse the curse.

Also in the woods, we meet Little Red, who is trying to visit her grandmother, the Wolf who loves tasty little girls, the Witch’s daughter Rapunzel, and the Princes chasing after their loves.

By the end of Act I, everyone has gotten their wish and will seemingly live happily ever after, but in Act II, when Jack’s beanstalk brings them a visit from an angry Giant, we see how the consequences of their actions haunt them in disastrous ways. The community must come together to save each other and their kingdom, but sacrifices must be made.

Recently made into a film by Disney, this Broadway version brings even more twists along the way, more songs and a lot more humour!

You won’t want to miss this classic musical, originally performed by a fantastic cast, including Bernadette Peters and Joanna Gleason, brought to life at The Tower Theatre, by our incredibly talented Youth Section.
