Into the Woods
Music & Lyrics by Stephen Sondheim
Book by James Lapine
The masterful songs of Stephen Sondheim set in the fantastical world of these beloved Brothers Grimm characters as they search for their ‘happily ever after’.
Following two sold-out runs in Barrie, the company’s revival transferred to Toronto’s historic Winter Garden Theatre. This production was presented “In Concert,” highlighting the music, lyrics, and narrative of Sondheim and Lapine by selectively utilizing elements of choreography, costumes, and set pieces.

What’s a Rich Text element?
The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.
Static and dynamic content editing
A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!
How to customize formatting for each rich text
Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
