Managing director's Notes

I have been hoping to straight Into the Woods since I get-go heard the original-bandage Broadway recording over 30 years ago. At that time, I admired the cleverness of the concept (this was long before Shrek!) and the mind-blowing depth of its wordplay (almost the cow, Milky White: "while her withers wither with her" Who in the globe dreams up lyrics similar that?!?) Sondheim had me hooked since I beginning saw Sweeney Todd years prior- this cemented the bargain. I before long began to learn the breadth and depth of Mr. Stephen Sondheim's contributions to theatre history. Mr. Sondheim's recent death saddened us all.  While this production was in planning for months prior to his demise, I hope today that our version ofInto the Woods tin serve equally our modest memorial to his theatrical genius.  There shall never be another.

I recall at the fourth dimension hearing some critics referencing Into the Woods as a kind of apologue for the AIDS crisis. 1 who knows the era can easily discover references to those times and the struggles so many endured. But I think to link the play to that era exclusively shortchanges its value as a work of fine art. Could this musical not speak to a nation shaken to its core by the unthinkable attacks of ix/11? Could the "giant" we boxing today non be a global pandemic?

Part of the genius of this work lies in its ability to connect to the audience of any era at the human level. This is not a documentary near a baker and his wife- information technology'due south not near wellness crises or murderous attacks. Into the Woods asks each of united states to consider what practice we dream and wish; to ponder the joy and folly of our dreams; to enquire what do we fear, and what will we do to become what we wish; and how will we handle the reality the adjacent morning time?

What is your wish? What giant do you boxing?
I wish y'all all the all-time on your journey with usa this evening.

Managing director
