Into the Woods - Stephen Sondheim, James Lapine

Desperate for a child, a baker and his wife journey into the woods to reverse a curse and change their luck. As the couple venture into the unknown, their story collides with Cinderella, Jack, Little Red Ridinghood, Rapunzel, witches, princes and giants. Featuring such classic songs as 'Giants in the Sky', 'Moments in the Woods', 'No One is Alone' and 'Children Will Listen', Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine's audacious and beloved musical intertwines the Brothers Grimm's most famous fairy tales and reckons with the realities of 'happy ever after'. Into the Woods was first staged at the Old Globe Theatre, California, in 1986, and opened on Broadway the following year. That production went on to win three Tony Awards, including Best Book of a Musical. This edition features an exclusive introduction by David Benedict, Sondheim's authorised biographer. It was published alongside the 2025-26 revival at the Bridge Theatre, London, directed by Jordan Fein and with set and costume design by Tom Scutt. The production was named Best Musical Revival at the 2026 Olivier Awards and transferred to the West End later that year.
