About the event
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 well-known characters – Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, Jack (and his beanstalk), Rapunzel, and the Witch in a lyrically rich retelling of classic Brothers Grimm fables.
The musical centres 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.
Over 70 young performers will be bringing this fantastical story to life right here in Wynnum, so join us for an entertaining journey Into the Woods!
