Description
Into the Woods Jr - “Be careful what you wish for” seems to be the ongoing theme in Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine’s Brothers Grimm-inspired musical, Into the Woods. The story follows The Baker and his wife who wish to have a child, Cinderella who wishes to go to the King’s Festival, and Jack who wishes his cow would give some milk. When the Baker and his wife are visited by the Witch from next door, who reveals to them that she placed a curse on their family, the two set off on a journey “into the woods'' to reverse the curse. There, we meet Little Red Riding Hood, on her way to visit her grandmother, the Wolf who loves tasty little girls, the Witch’s daughter Rapunzel, and two lovelorn Princes. By the end, everyone has gotten their wish and will seemingly live happily ever after.
Modern Fairy Tales Epic Fails - A series of fairy tale characters try to navigate the modern world, with each scene highlighting a different character’s struggle. Imagine Hansel and Gretel getting lost searching for Pokémon, Cinderella as an influencer whose followers encourage her to fight the patriarchy, and the Three Little Pigs having to deal with their insurance companies. Each fairy tale twist shows that sometimes, happily-ever-after isn’t so easy.
