Music and Lyrics by Stephen Sondheim
Book by James Lapine
An ambivalent Cinderella? A blood-thirsty Little Red Ridinghood? A Prince Charming with a roving eye? A Witch...who raps? We open our 13th Season in a Box with another victor of several Drama Desk and Tony Awards®. The well-known sagas of cockeyed characters unite in James Lapine and Stephen Sondheim’s fractured fairy tale. A baker and his wife embark on a quest to break the spell of childlessness by swindling, lying to and stealing from Cinderella, Little Red, Rapunzel and Jack (of beanstalk fame). Wishes are granted, but the consequences return to haunt them later as they learn about the pitfalls of greed and gluttony. What begins as a lively irreverent fantasy becomes a moving lesson about community responsibility and the stories we tell our children.
