Stephen Sondheim’s imaginative and comical musical remix of beloved fairy tales.

Upon discovering that a witch has cursed their family, the Baker and his Wife must locate a list of curious ingredients in order to break the spell. Along the way, aided by Red Riding Hood, Jack and his cow, Cinderella and Rapunzel, they discover wolves, princes, magic beans, giants, and just how happy-ever-after might not always be, well, happy…

This spellbinding musical will entertain the whole family this summer.
