SYNOPSIS
"Into the Woods Jr." is a streamlined adaptation of Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine's musical for young audiences, combining Grimm fairy tales into a narrative about a Baker and his Wife breaking a curse to start a family. They need four magical items, leading them to encounter characters like Cinderella, Jack, Little Red Riding Hood, and Rapunzel. Each character's journey explores the themes of wishes, consequences, and community. This version simplifies darker elements and narratives to focus on moral lessons and the interconnectedness of desires, making it an engaging and educational experience for younger participants and viewers.
Into the Woods Musical Jr. is proudly presented by grade 8-12 students at CTORA Academy.
