About the Show: The late Stephen Sondheim, legendary composer and lyricist collaborated with equally accomplished Broadway legend James Lapine in 1987 to write the musically sophisticated and poignant musical Into the Woods. The musical is a unique take on everyone's favorite storybook characters and brings them together for a timeless, yet relevant, piece... and a rare modern classic. The Tony Award-winning book and score are both enchanting and touching.

The story follows a Baker and his wife, who wish to have a child; Cinderella, who wishes to attend the King's Festival; and Jack, who wishes his cow would give milk. When the Baker and his wife learn that they cannot have a child because of a Witch's curse, the two set off on a journey to break the curse. Everyone's wish is granted, but the consequences of their actions return to haunt them later with disastrous results.

Our CHAMPS Musical Theatre team is honored to celebrate the legacy of Stephen Sondheim after his recent passing and hope you will come out to experience his brilliant work through the eyes and talent of our CHAMPS students! See you at Into the Woods!
