A rare modern classic brings everyone’s favorite storybook characters together in this timeless, and still relevant piece by James Lapine and Stephen Sondheim. We’ll get to witness the story of a Baker and his wife, who wish to have a child; Cinderella, who wants to attend a ball; and Jack with a cow whom he wishes would produce milk. A journey ensues when the Baker and his wife learn that they cannot have a child due to a Witch’s curse and features our storybook favorites, including Red Riding Hood, Rapunzel, and a Giant.
