What can I say about directing Into the Woods that hasn’t already
been said? Well, I can say that the Brothers Grimm’s tales have
greatly influenced this production. This interpretation presents a
new darker perspective on how the stories are narrated and
interrelated. I ask that you open your minds to these new
interpretations, ideas and approaches, beginning with the Narrator
acting as the Baker’s son. As the Narrator recalls the story he is
suddenly drawn and trapped in it like many of us have been trapped
in a past memory. I won’t describe all the fun twists that are
staged but do keep an eye out for many dark events. All the
characters will be constantly interacting with the audience so don’t
be surprised if something or someone crawls out from where you least
expect it. Watch, live and experience theatre at its best.
