On Stage This Afternoon - "Into the Woods"

I saw Into the Woods last night and enjoyed it tremendously! What amazing talent we have here in the Tri-State!

I'll have more to say about it soon, but you have one more chance to see the show this weekend (and then three more chances next weekend)!

The musical will be presented at the Jean C. Stephenson Auditorium (upstairs at Huntington City Hall) today at 4 p.m. and then next weekend at 8 p.m. Friday and Saturday, Nov. 20-21, and 4 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 22.

This is the full version of the Tony Award-winning Broadway musical with music and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim and the book by James Lapine. The duo presents an entertaining view of everyone's favorite fairytale characters in this hysterical take on the Brothers Grimm. When a baker and his wife learn they've been cursed with childlessness by the witch next door, they embark on a quest for the special objects required to break the spell - they'll need items from Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, Rapunzel and Jack (who climbed the beanstalk).

Tickets are $12 and $10 children 12 and under. Call 304-416-KIDS for info or 304-733-4909.
