Into the Woods (2014)

Unknown - wrote on 12/30/14

'Into the Woods' is a fun fantasy musical. The story blends classic fairy tale stories together. It pays homage to them, while poking at the usual tropes. Some great comedic moments coincide with the terrifically performed songs. It generates a warm, playful atmosphere. The second half shakes up the familiar plot with a contrast of more mature themes, adding a slightly darker tone. The presumed 'happily ever after' is taken aback to infuse a bit more dramatic complexity. The shift brings a modern twist on the learnings from fables. New life lessons are here to test. All ages will undoubtedly receive an equal share. It's topped off by a grand production and an immensely talented cast. Very enjoyable.
