When you live next door to an evil witch, don’t take anything from her garden no matter how tasty it looks! Follow classic fairy tales as they intersect and veer off the path in one of Stephen Sondheim’s greatest works. Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, Jack, and the Baker and his Wife all head into the woods to find their destinies and along the way encounter Charming Princes, Big Bad Wolves, Witches, and Giants. Anything can happen in the woods, but finding their way back out again may prove more difficult and require more growing up than they ever imagined.
