"Into The Woods" Musical Theater Sondheim Full Performance [University Production] 4K!

"Into The Woods" leads the audience on a journey to the darker side of fairy tales, exploring the pain of growing up, communal responsibility, and the values we pass on to our children. As the intricate, absorbing plot unfolds, a childless baker and his wife, cursed by a wicked witch, go off into the woods in hopes of ridding themselves of her evil influence. There, they encounter Cinderella, her Prince, Little Red Ridinghood, the Wolf, Jack the Giant Killer, Rapunzel, and other fairy tale characters who are attempting to realize wishes of their own. By the end of Act I, everything seems to be blissfully, happily resolved. But a destructive, vengeful force looms in the woods, which leads to tragic consequences in the second act, bringing the characters to a painful, but hopeful resolution. Filled with unexpected twists and dazzling insights, "Into The Woods" is a cautionary plea for commitment expressed through masterstrokes of theatrical magic. Subjects as diverse as the promise of perfect love, the foolhardiness of questing for material goods, and the loving but difficult relationship between parents and children, are considered in a landscape shaded with psychological undertones. With tenderness and laughter, Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine bring us through a maze that mirrors the complexity of everyday existence. Like the characters in "Into The Woods", we end this journey aware of the moral consequences of our actions and the power of tolerance, community and shared sacrifice.
