Into the Woods
In this production, the sense of journey was heightened by the cast performing (singing, playing and acting) on a constantly moving revolving stage. A beautifully effective design from Mark Bailey.

Play description
“What really happens after the fairy-tale ending, when all your wishes have come true? A baker and his wife, along with characters from Little Red Ridinghood, Jack and the Beanstalk, Rapunzel and Cinderella, are about to find out that every wish has a consequence… and every story has a moral. Full of humour, attitude and unfortgettable music, Stephen Sondheim’s playful romp thorugh the Brothers Grimm fairy tales brings the land of make believe bang-up-to-date.”
