The Woodsman will play a strictly limited engagement through Sunday, February 22, 2015. BroadwayWorld is excited to bring you an exclusive, extended sneak peek below!

Back by popular demand following a sold out 3-week engagement at 59E59 Theaters, The Woodsman features music by Edward W. Hardy and lyrics by Jennifer Loring and a cast of nine that includes Ben Bass, Will Gallacher, Alex J. Gould, Lauren Nordvig, James Ortiz, Eliza Simpson, Meghan St. Thomas, and Sophia Zukoski, accompanied by composer/violinist Edward W. Hardy.

The Woodsman is the untold story of Oz's Tin Woodsman, the woman he loved, and the witch that would stop at nothing to keep them apart. A lonely woodsman from the Land of Oz must embark on a harrowing journey to protect the love of his life from her evil guardian, the Wicked Witch of the East. Through puppetry, movement, and song, Strangemen & Co. presents a hauntingly beautiful and ultimately heartbreaking twist on the forgotten writings of L. Frank Baum.
