Direct from Broadway, the critically acclaimed and much beloved production of Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine’s Tony® and Grammy®-winning triumph is playing a series of exclusive engagements across the U.S. with its Broadway stars to boot. Into the Woods features Montego Glover as The Witch, Stephanie J. Block as The Baker’s Wife Sebastian Arcelus as The Baker, Gavin Creel as Cinderella’s Prince/Wolf, and Krysta Rodriguez as Cinderella— all reprising their Broadway roles — in a production called “radiant” (Variety), “enchanting” (The Wall Street Journal), and “a priceless revival with a perfect cast” (The Washington Post). Directed by Lear deBessonet (Hercules), this theatrical event honors Sondheim’s legendary memory and his Broadway masterpiece like never before.

Into the Woods

Center Theatre Group

Music by Mary Rodgers; Lyrics by Marshall Barer; Book by Jay Thompson, Dean Fuller, and Marshall Barer. Presented by the Hayes School of Music and the Department of Theatre and Dance. Directed and Choreographed by Kevin Warner; Music Direction by Joby Bell and Tyler Young; Appalachian Symphony Orchestra directed by Alexandra Dee. Many moons ago in a far-off place, Queen Aggravain decreed that no couples could marry until her son, Prince Dauntless, found a bride. Princesses came from far and wide to win the hand of the prince, but none could pass the impossible tests given to them by the Queen. That is, until the "shy" swamp princess, Winnifred the Woebegone, showed up. A rollicking spin on the classic tale The Princess and the Pea.
