THE SUNSHINE BROOKS THEATRE
217 N Coast Hwy, Oceanside, CA 92054
Eleven years ago, New Village Arts produced its first musical. Now, in the midst of our 20th season, NVA partners with Oceanside Theatre Company to return to the musical that started it all. INTO THE WOODS brings well-known fairytale characters to musical life. Interwoven through their tales is the story of a baker and his wife, whose longing for a child is thwarted by a mischievous witch. Stephen Sondheim’s songs, seamlessly melded to James Lapine’s text, are perfect expressions of the complications of living in modern society and the difficult choices we encounter on the paths of our lives. INTO THE WOODS will transform the Oceanside Theatre Company’s stage into a magic land where almost anything can (and does) happen.
Sponsored by the City of Carlsbad.
