ACT Performing Arts Academy is proud to present Kids in the ACT Youth Theatre’s production of Into the Woods, JR,
Be careful what you wish for, as Stephen Sondheim’s and James Lapine’s cockeyed fairytale comes to life in this adaptation of their groundbreaking, Tony Award-winning musical. Into the Woods JR. features all of your favorite characters — Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, Jack (and his beanstalk) and the Witch — in this lyrically rich retelling of classic Brothers Grimm fables.
The musical centers on a baker and his wife, who wish to have a child; Cinderella, who wishes to attend the King's festival; and Jack, who wishes his cow would give milk. When the baker and his wife learn that they cannot have a child because of a witch's curse, the two set off on a journey to break the curse, and wind up changed forever.
With unforgettable fairytale characters, Into the Woods JR. is filled with amazing stage spectacle and unforgettable songs. This new take on Stephen Sondheim’s and James Lapine’s groundbreaking musical fairytale about wishes and the choices we make is a delight for all.
