Into the Woods Music and Lyrics by STEPHEN SONDHEIM Thursday - Saturday, September 26–28 at 7:30 p.m. As the result of a curse by a once-beautiful witch, a baker and his wife are left childless. Three days before the rise of a blue moon, they venture into an enchanted forest to find the ingredients needed to reverse the spell and restore the witch’s beauty: a milk-white cow, hair as yellow as corn, a blood-red cape, and a slipper of gold. During their journey, they encounter a trove of storybook characters—Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, Rapunzel, and Jack—each one on a quest to fulfill a wish, as they chase their deepest desires into the woods. |

Vinegar Tom by Caryl Churchill Directed by Ron Dye Thursday - Saturday, November 7 - 9 at 7:30 p.m. In a seventeenth century rural village a young woman named Alice takes as a lover a married man who lives on a neighboring farm. After she rebukes the man’s further advances both Alice and her widowed mother are accused of witchcraft following their neighbors’ growing family strife and agricultural failures. The two women eventually must submit to the doctors who would cure them as well as to the land speculators who covet their meager farm. Another kindred spirit, a betrothed young daughter of a prosperous landowner, is judged to be insane and is locked away because she doesn’t wish to marry. And in the minds of the local villagers, behind it all is Vinegar Tom, the stealthy black cat who is often seen lurking about, boldly plundering barns and milk sheds. “Vinegar Tom” is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals on behalf of Samuel French, Inc. www.concordtheatricals.com TICKETS |
