Those who have staged "Into The Woods"-- help!!
Posted by: GavinLogan1 05:05 pm EDT 06/25/24

I am unable to find on the MTI website any conclusive proof that "Into The Woods" is still licensed (or ever was) using the additional lyric changes and such that were made for the 2002 Broadway Revival.

I am planning to do the show for my high school's mainstage production next year, and I actually quite enjoyed the addition of the 2nd Wolf in "Hello Little Girl" (it adds more for Rapunzel's Prince to do, as well... at least, I assume that's who would play it), and we are going to be using a lot of puppetry so adding the Pigs could be fun.

I also really liked the added trio at the end of "On The Steps of the Palace"... a very nice harmony, and a moment to drive home the main lessons of Act I for those characters...

I am keenly aware many Sondheim fans and purists were NOT fans of those changes/ additions... but I'm looking for ways to give the cast more to do.

Anyway, I haven't had a reply from my MTI rep yet, and I'm impatient.

Does anyone here know if that particular version is still allowed to be licensed?

Thanks,

Gavin
