Into The Woods Opens At Stagecrafters Friday

Stagecraft’s Theater in Royal Oak debuts Into the Woods Friday. The musical offers a twisted take on fairy stories, including Little Red Riding Hood, Jack and the Beanstalk, Cinderella and Rapunzel. The ribald tale features a randy wolf and a wicked witch who may be “the smartest and fairest of them all,” according to Stagecraft’s. The musical, composed by Steven Sondheim, was made into a 2014 movie starring Meryl Streep and Chris Pine.
