Description

Join us for Kirkwood Community College's fall musical, "Into the Woods"! The Brothers Grimm hit the stage with an epic fairytale about wishes, family, and the choices we make. One of Stephen Sondheim's most popular works, "Into the Woods" 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.
