WTHS to Stage "Into the Woods" March 8-10, 2018
Washington Township High School’s Way-Off Broadway Players will present Into the Woods at the WTHS Playhouse March 8-10, 2018. Four performances – Thursday, March 8th and Friday, March 9th at 7:30 p.m. and Saturday, March 10th at 2 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. – will bring audience members through a modern twist on several of the beloved Brothers Grimm fairy tales, intertwining the plots of a few choice stories and exploring the consequences of the characters' wishes and quests. This humorous and heartfelt musical, directed by WTHS teacher Abby Molotsky, follows the classic tales of Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, Jack and the Beanstalk, and Rapunzel, all tied together by an original story involving a baker and his wife, their wish to begin a family and their interaction with the witch who has put a curse on them.
Tickets are $10 each, and seating for all four performances is reserved. Tickets can be purchased online at http://wthsnj.booktix.com/ and will be available up to two hours before the shows. Tickets will be available at the box office starting an hour before each performance. Please contact Shannon Molloy (smolloy@wtps.org) for additional ticketing information.
