Join Theatre 55 as we present Into The Woods in the woods!
Escape into a fantastical fairytale adventure where wishes come true, but not for free. A trove of storybook characters’ paths intertwine as they chase their deepest desires through an enchanted forest. However, once they receive their happily ever after, the unintended consequences of granted wishes unravel their worlds.
Be careful what you wish for because you might just get it!
