Once Upon a Time...a baker and his wife embark on a quest into the woods, to fulfill the witch's request and lift a curse that has kept them from having a child. Along the way, they meet Little Red Riding Hood, Jack (and his beanstalk), Cinderella, two handsome princes and a motley assortment of other characters, all on quests of their own. Stephen Sondheim's enormously popular musical answers the question of what really happens after "happily ever after" and includes some of the most beautiful songs in the musical theatre canon, including Giants in the Sky, Children Will Listen and No One Is Alone.
