Following the sell-out production of The Hunchback of Notre Dame, Artform returns to BHT with a Sondheim musical for our 40th anniversary production.

 

With a Tony Award-winning score and book, Into the Woods brings the Brothers Grimm fairytale characters to life, interweaving their dark yet entertaining tales – all set to a sublime score.


Whilst lost in the woods, a host of beloved characters explore their relationships to each other, responsibilities and wish fulfilment, but also having to understand the consequences of their choices.


Will everyone get their ‘happy ever after’? They’ll have to find their way through the woods first?

 

 

 

 

 

We are back rehearsing under the beautiful dome of the Corbett Community Library, getting stuck in with the wonderful scores with our MD John Hargreaves.
