Into The Woods

  • Throckmorton Theatre 142 Throckmorton Avenue Mill Valley, CA, 94941 United States (map)

What happens when your favorite fairy tales get mixed up? When Little Red Riding Hood befriends Jack and the Beanstalk? When Cinderella and Rapunzel realize that charming is not nearly enough? When the wicked witch may be the smartest and fairest of them all? Find out in Throckmorton Theatre’s production of Into the Woods, a show that transcends time and space with universal truths about family, love and friendship.

James Lapine and Stephen Sondheim take everyone’s favorite storybook characters and bring them together for a timeless, yet relevant, piece… and a rare modern classic. The Tony Award-winning book and score are both enchanting and touching.

The story follows 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. Everyone’s wish is granted, but the consequences of their actions return to haunt them later with disastrous results!
