The cast is set! Into the Woods is a modern twist on the beloved Brothers Grimm fairy tales in a musical format that follows the classic tales of Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, Jack and the Beanstalk, and Rapunzel-all tied together by an original story involving a baker and his wife, their wish to begin a family and their interaction with the witch who has put a curse on them.

What is happening in the wood?
Community or Not Community?
Due in Two Weeks: November 5, 2018 before midnight.
When the characters in Into the Woods are choosing someone to sacrifice to the Giant, the suggestion is made that the blind stepsisters should be sacrificed because of their physical disability. What does this tell about what is happening to the community? What events in world history does this kind of thinking reflect?
