ZACH THEATRE PRESENTS

INTO THE WOODS

September 29-November 7, 2021 | People's Plaza at ZACH

ZACH Theatre will present Stephen Sondheim's Tony Award-Winning musical, Into the Woods playing September 29-November 7, 2021, under the direction of Producing Artistic Director Dave Steakley. Into the Woods will be brought to life outdoors on The People’s Plaza using ZACH’s architecture and natural environment in surprising ways as part of the ZACH360 experience.

Stephen Sondheim’s fairytale masterpiece plays outside on the People’s Plaza at ZACH in a contemporary, re-imagined interpretation, using the architecture and landscaping as the backdrop. The plaza will transform into the woods and envelop the audience as Rapunzel lets down her hair from the Topfer balcony, Cinderella loses her slipper on the stairs, and the Milky White cow sculpture moos to life with Jack and his Beanstalk. All of the Giants wrestled in 2020 are there too, but with the assurance that “No One Is Alone” and there is light ahead.

Performances run Tuesday through Sunday at 7:30 p.m.
