Concluding the 2009-2010 Emerson Stage season is Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine's beloved musical, Into the Woods. Directed by Scott LaFeber, the production played the Cutler Majestic Theatre April 22-24.

There's more to the forest than witches and wolves, princes and potions in the magical musical Into the Woods. When a Baker and his Wife learn the Witch next door has cursed them with childlessness, they embark on a quest to break the spell. Along the way, they swindle, lie, and steal from Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, Rapunzel, and Jack (of beanstalk fame). Everyone's wish is granted, but the consequences of their actions return to haunt them with disastrous results. What begins as a lively irreverent fantasy in the style of "The Princess Bride" becomes a moving lesson about community responsibility and the stories we tell our children.

INTO THE WOODS featured a production team consisting of musical director Jon Goldberg, scenic designer Janie Howland, costume designer Tyler Kinney, lighting designer Scott Pinkney, sound designer Adam Howarth, props master Joanna Stenning, and stage manager Rachel Enright. LaFeber will be joined by assistant directors Kristi Dana and Danielle Mohlman, as well as dramaturgs Cheyenne Postell and Rory Garcia.

The cast included Noel Carey (Narrator/Mysterious Man), Blake Pfeil (Jack), Tyler Bellmon, Michael Borges (Cinderella Prince/Wolf), Anthony Jackson (Rapunzel Prince), Sean Elias (Cinderella's Father), Dru Serkes (Steward), Jessica Naimy (Cinderella), Meredith Jones (Baker's Wife), Lexie Frare (Little Red), Brittney Morello (Witch), Krista Buccellato (Rapunzel), Abigail Vega (Jack's Mother), Lauren Parker (Cinderella's Stepmom), Chelsea Williams (Florinda), Chelsey Lebel (Lucinda), Dana Vincent (Dead Cinderella's Mom, etc), Anna Baker (Milky White), Kelsey Puttrich (Sleeping Beauty), and Elise Taff (Snow White).
