INDIANAPOLIS – Beef & Boards Dinner Theatre is presenting its premiere production of Stephen Sondheim’s enchanting musical, Into the Woods, now on stage through Nov. 20. The Brothers Grimm hit the stage in this epic fairy tale about wishes, family and the choices we make.
The story follows a Baker (Don Farrell) and his wife (Meaghan Sands), who wish to have a child; Cinderella (Amanda Downey), who wishes to attend the King’s Festival; and Jack (Danny Kingston), 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 it. They venture into the woods where they meet Cinderella and Jack, who are each on their own quests. Everyone’s wish is granted, but the consequences of their actions return to haunt them later with disastrous results.
