Wish granted! The Roundabout revival of Into the Woods begins performances off-Broadway on December 18. Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine’s classic musical will play at the Laura Pels Theatre in the Harold and Miriam Steinberg Center for Theatre, with opening night set for January 22, 2015. The production is scheduled to run through March 22.
The beloved re-imagining of fairy tales centers on a childless Baker and his wife, who embark on a quest to find the four items required to break a witch’s spell: the cow as white as milk, the cape as red as blood, the hair as yellow as corn, and the slipper as pure as gold.
Directed by Noah Brody and Ben Steinfeld, the show stars Jessie Austrian, Noah Brody, Paul L. Coffey, Andy Grotelueschen, Liz Hayes, Claire Karpen, Jennifer Mudge, Patrick Mulryan, Ben Steinfeld and Emily Young. All the actors are reprising their roles in the Fiasco Theater stripped down production, which has played both at New Jersey’s McCarter Theatre Center and the Old Globe Theatre in San Diego.
