Into the Woods Tickets: Bridge Theatre London
Overview
Into the Woods, Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine's spellbinding musical, arrives at Bridge Theatre in a brilliant new revival directed by Jordan Fein. This production weaves together Brothers Grimm fairy tales featuring a baker, his wife, Cinderella, Jack, Little Red Riding Hood, Rapunzel, witches, wolves, and giants, as their quests collide in the enchanted woods.
Rediscovering the magic of Sondheim's iconic score with witty lyrics, emotional depth, and songs like 'Giants in the Sky,' 'No One Is Alone,' and 'Children Will Listen,' it shatters happily-ever-after illusions in a dark, haunting second act.
