Roundabout's INTO THE WOODS Enters Final Weeks Off-Broadway

Roundabout Theatre Company will conclude its limited engagement of the critically acclaimed Off-Broadway production of Stephen Sondheim & James Lapine's Into the Woods, on April 12, 2015.

At the time of closing, Into the Woods will have played 26 preview performances and 91 regular performances. Previews began on December 18, 2014, and the production opened officially on January 22, 2015 at the Laura Pels Theatre in the Harold and Miriam Steinberg Center for Theatre (111 West 46th Street). This limited engagement has extended thru April 12, 2015.

Directed by Noah Brody and Ben Steinfeld, this production premiered in May 2013 at the McCarter Theatre in association with the Fiasco Theater.

Into the Woods features the original McCarter Theatre Center/Fiasco Theater cast, including: Jessie Austrian as "Baker's Wife," Noah Brody as "Lucinda, Wolf & Cinderella's Prince," Matt Castle as "Pianist," Paul L. Coffey as "Mysterious Man," Andy Grotelueschen as "Milky White, Florinda & Rapunzel's Prince," Liz Hayes as "Cinderella's Stepmother & Jack's Mother," Claire Karpen as "Cinderella & Granny," Jennifer Mudge as Witch," Patrick Mulryan as "Jack & Steward," Ben Steinfeld as "Baker" and Emily Young as "Little Red Ridinghood & Rapunzel."

With only 10 actors, one piano and boundless imagination, this witty and wildly theatrical re-invention is Into the Woods like you've never seen it before! This stripped-down, unplugged, thrillingly clever new version includes all the dazzling classic songs like "Children Will Listen" and "Giants in the Sky." Mind the wolf, heed the witch and honor the giant at this extraordinary musical about the power of wishes and what happens when they really do come true.

Roundabout has a long relationship with Stephen Sondheim having produced five Tony Award nominated Sondheim revivals including Company (1995), Follies (2001), Tony Award winning Assassins (2004), Pacific Overtures (2004) and Sunday in the Park with George (2008). In 2005, Roundabout honored Sondheim with the Jason Robards Award for Excellence in Theatre for the indelible impact his life's work has made on the theatre. In 2009 Roundabout presented a one-night only gala concert reading of A Little Night Music. In 2010, Roundabout presented a special Broadway musical tribute to Sondheim entitled Sondheim on Sondheim conceived and directed by Into the Woods' librettist James Lapine and in the same year, renamed Broadway's Henry Millers' Theatre in honor of Mr. Sondheim.

The creative team includes: Derek McLane (Sets), Whitney Locher (Costumes), Christopher Akerlind (Lighting), Darron L West (Sound), Michael Perlman (Associate Director), Lisa Shriver (Choreographer) Matt Castle (Music Director) and Frank Galgano (Orchestrations).
