About
San Francisco Playhouse presents "Into the Woods" this holiday season. Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine’s beloved musical intertwines classic fairytales in an exploration of what happens after “happily ever after.” A baker and his wife set out to lift a witch’s curse, meeting Cinderella, Little Red, and Jack along the way. Directed by Susi Damilano with music direction by Dave Dobrusky and choreography by Nicole Helfer.
SF/Arts Curator Insight
The Stephen Sondheim/James Lapine musical follows a baker (played in this SF Playhouse production by Phil Wong) and his wife as they venture out on a quest to break a witch’s curse. Along the way they meet familiar characters from Brothers Grimm fairytales: Little Red Riding Hood, Rapunzel, Cinderella and more. Bound to be especially delightful: Maureen McVerry as Milky White, Jack in the Beanstalk’s beloved cow. Susi Damilano directs.
