In Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine’s classic musical, fairy tale characters from four of the Brothers Grimm's fairy tales, such as the Baker, the Baker’s Wife, the Witch, Jack, Little Red Ridinghood, Cinderella and Rapunzel take us beyond happy ever after to discover what really matters. Director Jordan Fein’s production was the most nominated musical revival of the year at the Olivier Awards, with 11 nominations, of which it won two – Best Musical Revival and Best Lighting.
As previously announced, the show will transfer this autumn to the Noël Coward Theatre. Joining Kate Fleetwood, who will be reprising her role as the Witch, will be returning cast members Valda Aviks (as Grandmother/Giant), Geoffrey Aymer (as Cinderella’s Father), Jo Foster (as Jack), Jennifer Hepburn (as Cinderella’s Stepmother and Alternate Witch), Hana Ichijo (as Lucinda), Julie Jupp (as Jack’s Mother), Gabrielle Lewis-Dodson (as Florinda), and Gracie McGonigal (as Little Red Riding Hood), with Jacob Fowler and Sophie Linder-Lee also returning as Standbys. Further casting will be announced at a later date.
Into the Woods will begin performances on 22 September, running until 9 January 2027.
