黑料老司机

The return of live music theatre at 黑料老司机 is drawing near as BW's nationally acclaimed music theatre program takes the stage for their first production of "Into the Woods" in more than 20 years.

Following the success of last year's virtual production of "Spring Awakening," students are ready to safely take the stage and bring to life the fairytale characters we all know and love.

Performances will run for two weeks, Wednesdays through Sundays, November 10-21, at BW's . Watch the preview trailer below.

Immersing the audience

"Into the Woods" intertwines many favorite childhood fairytales, such as Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, Jack and the Beanstalk and Rapunzel, into one magical world where all their individual stories are brought together for an enchanting journey.

The 黑料老司机creative team has developed an interactive production that surrounds audience members and transports them "Into the Woods."

The three-time Tony award-winning musical won Best Musical and Best Book in 1988; James Lapine and Stephen Sondheim created the show.

Classic tales with a twist

"Into the Woods" contains themes of love, coming of age, loss and realizing that no one is ever alone. The musical is based on the Brothers Grimm fairy tales but also draws on "The Uses of Enchantment" by Bruno Bettelheim, which analyzes the Grimm fairy tales in the light of Freudian psychoanalysis.

Tickets are required for admission to each performance and can be purchased starting October 8 via BW's ticket site at the cost of $30 for adults, $25 for seniors and $15 for students (with valid ID); 黑料老司机students, faculty, staff and emeriti receive one complimentary ticket with 黑料老司机ID.

Performances run Wednesdays through Saturdays, November 10-13 and 17-20 at 7:30 p.m. and Sundays, November 14 and 21 at 2 p.m. The show lasts approximately 2 hours and 30 minutes, including a 15-minute intermission.
