CAREFUL THE WISH YOU MAKE… WISHES COME TRUE… NOT FREE!

Into the Woods takes you on a journey that retells timeless fairy tales that we know and love.

This contemporary and wildly imaginative musical features Stephen Sondheim’s Tony Award-winning score; a treasure trove of metaphor and breathtaking insights into the euphoria and anguish of holding onto hope in times of darkness and uncertainty. Packed with whimsical characters and enchanting theatrical magic, James Lapine's Brothers Grimm-inspired story is a hilariously charming caper that blossoms into a captivating fable of personal growth and community, reminding us that "no one is alone."

To fulfil their wish, a Baker and his Wife must reverse a curse placed on them by the Witch next door. The pair journey into the woods to locate four magical ingredients, and along the way meet Cinderella, Little Red, Jack, and Rapunzel, each pursuing a wish of their own. Through surprising twists and astounding encounters, these characters discover the true power of wishes, and what really happens after ‘happily ever after’.

Experience a spellbinding world where all who step foot into the woods come face-to-face with their deepest wish and ultimate consequence.
