Into The Woods at Berkeley Playhouse

One of Stephen Sondheim’s most popular works, INTO THE WOODS is a timeless modern classic. Intertwining such classic fairytales as Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, and Jack and the Beanstalk with the story of a childless baker and his wife, who attempt to reverse a curse on their family, INTO THE WOODS deals with the real life consequences that occur when the fairytale ends and what really happens after happily ever after. Witty and profound, this enchanting hit dazzles with glorious music, memorable songs, and thought-provoking laughter. Skewing the line between vintage fairytale and modern urban legend, 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.
