An ambivalent Cinderella? A blood-thirsty Little Red Ridinghood? A Prince Charming with a roving eye? A Witch...who raps? They're all among the cockeyed characters in James Lapine and Stephen Sondheim's fractured fairy tale. 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, swindling, lying to and stealing from Cinderella, Little Red, Rapunzel and Jack (the one who climbed the beanstalk). Everyone's wish is granted at the end of Act One, but the consequences of their actions return to haunt them later, with disastrous results. What begins as a lively irreverent fantasy in the style of “The Princess Bride” becomes a moving lesson about community responsibility and the stories we tell our children. INTO THE WOODS Performance Dates: Friday 22 Oct @ 8pm Saturday 23Oct @ 2pm & 8pm Sunday 24 Oct @ 2pm Wednesday 27 Oct @ 8pm Friday 29 Oct @ 8pm Saturday 30 Oct @ 2pm & 8pm Sunday 31 Oct @ 2pm Performances are at THE NEW Engadine Community Centre, 1040 Old Princes Hwy, Engadine. INTO THE WOODS Ticket Prices: Adults: $30 Children, Students, Concessions: $25 Groups (15+): $25 A booking fee will also apply. Book tickets on 1300-616-063
