Why would you go into the woods? To sell the cow, to visit mother, to see the king, to lift the spell... Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine's dazzling fairy-tale musical returns to London in a stunning new production at the Bridge Theatre. With Kate Fleetwood as the Witch and Jamie Parker as the Baker, this 'five-star triumph' (The Times) takes us beyond happily ever after.
Cancellation policy: theatre tickets cannot be cancelled, exchanged, or refunded once purchased.
Kate Fleetwood plays the Witch, with Jamie Parker as the Baker and Katie Brayben as the Baker's Wife. The cast includes Chumisa Dornford-May (Cinderella), Bella Brown (Rapunzel), Jo Foster (Jack), Gracie McGonigal (Little Red Riding Hood), Oliver Savile (Cinderella's Prince/Wolf), Rhys Whitfield (Rapunzel's Prince), Julie Jupp (Jack's Mother), and Michael Gould (Narrator/Mysterious Man).
Into the Woods features music and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim and book by James Lapine – their second collaboration after Sunday in the Park with George. This production is directed by Jordan Fein (Olivier Award-winning Fiddler on the Roof), with set and costumes by Tom Scutt (Cabaret), music supervision by Mark Aspinall, and orchestrations by Jonathan Tunick.
Into the Woods won three Tony Awards at its 1988 Broadway premiere, including Best Score for Sondheim and Best Book for Lapine. It has become one of Sondheim's most beloved and frequently performed works, a staple of professional theatres and schools worldwide. This Bridge Theatre production opened to five-star reviews from The Times, Time Out, and Financial Times.
