“Into the Woods Jr.” MUSICAL
Suggested Grades: 7th-12th
Cost: $450
Description: Be careful what you wish for, as Stephen Sondheim’s and James Lapine’s cockeyed fairytale comes to life in this adaptation of their groundbreaking, Tony Award-winning musical. Into the Woods JR. features all of your favorite characters — Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, Jack (and his beanstalk) and the Witch — in this lyrically rich retelling of classic Brothers Grimm fables.
The musical centers on 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, and wind up changed forever.

“Muddled Ever After: A Fairy Tale Menagerie” PLAY
Suggested Grades: 3rd-6th
Cost: $450
Description: This isn’t a fairy tale—it’s a fairly ridiculous tale! The King and Queen demand that all attend a royal ball to find a bride for their spoiled son, Princeling Reginald. To ensure the contenders are worthy, the Queen devises an absurd test—though Reginald only cares about getting a bowling alley. Meanwhile, an egotistical dragon snacks on royals, three weird witches meddle, and a prince wants to be turned back into a frog. In this muddled mash-up of Cinderella, Rumpelstiltskin, and The Princess and the Pea, the chaos somehow leads to happy endings… for most!
