    What a show!

    The only thing better than seeing this show, is being part of the production. I was only a freshman in high school, but it was a theatre experience to remember!

    Highly Recommended

    I looooove "Into the Woods". We performed this my Sophomore year in high school and we won the "Most Outstanding Stage Crew" Metropolitan Theatre Award for it. I remember whisper-singing the songs backstage. Great musical and story.

    Love it!

    I played Cinderella in my senior year of high school in INTO THE WOODS. This book is another great way to experience the musical and the illustrations are great!

    Into the Woods: A review by Mua!

    I loved this book. This year our school did Into the Woods as the school musical. I was in it and played Little Red Ridinghood's Granny. And boy, was that a blast to be her. When I bought the book, and read over it while listening to the soundtrack, I thought everything in it was awesome and clever.

    So Disappointing

    I can't believe how few songs are in this. It doesn't even have Red Ridinghood's or The Wolf's song. It is not worth the money or the time spent ordering it.

    Rapunzel,Cinderella & Jack and the Beanstalk

    This musical is a must-see for anyone who loves fairy tales. There has never been such an incredible combination of classic stories as well as good music. One of my goals is to play 'Jack' in this play. Oh, and the song,'The Last Midnight', great song!
