If you are wondering which Into The Woods cast recording to buy.look no further. What a cast.
Once again the item proved to be precisely what I wanted and the service was, as always, exceptional. Prompt delivery and arrived in perfect condition.
She had already been exposed to all the fairy tales touched on in the play, and because of the excellent story-telling, has begun to seek out other retold fairy tales in literature. My 7 year-old and I absolutely LOVE this production. And she has printed out the lyrics to many of the songs and sings them almost constantly throughout the day.
The Broadway Revival Cast and the London Cast are both dreadful, so if you have a choice, take this one) It interlocks 5 different fairy tales : 4 well-known(Cinderella, Red Riding-Hood , Rapunzel, and Jack and the Beanstalk) and 1 original tale (a baker and his wife) The musical is a really sunny tale in the 1st act but in the 2nd act, many characters are trampled by a giant who was the wife of the one in Jack and the Beanstalk. Most people my age have never heard of this truly wonderful composition. This opened at the Martin Beck Theatre in November of 1987 and was a success lasting for 2 years. However, this is still a highly reccomendable CD with exquisite music and I think you will like it.(P.S.
This is the kind of musical best experienced on stage, and I haven't yet. I'm sure that when I do, I'll be able to enjoy the music better.
