Pomona
College Theatre Presents Sondheim’s “Into the Woods”
|
 |
Follow Little Red Riding Hood, the Big Bad Wolf, the Wicked
Witch, Cinderella, and other storybook characters as they
romp through the forest of life to follow their dreams and
chase their demons. Pomona College Professor Boots Pascual
directs this production of Stephen Sondheim’s Tony
Award-winning musical “Into the Woods.” Performances will be
held November 17-19 at 8:00 p.m., and November 19-20 at 2
p.m.
To undo the Witch’s curse preventing them from having
children, the Baker and his wife go into the woods to gather
several magical items. There they meet Red Riding Hood,
who's just escaped the clutches of the Wolf, and enlist the
aid of a number of other characters from other stories (Jack
and the Beanstalk, Cinderella, Rapunzel, etc.). Throughout
their adventures these fairy-tale characters are confronted
with the problems of the real world.
“Into the Woods” performances will be held at the Pomona
College Seaver Theatre (300 E. Bonita Avenue, Claremont).
Admission is $5 for faculty, staff, students and senior
citizens; $10 general admission. For further information
call the Theatre at: (909) 607-4375 or (909) 621-8525. Box
office hours are Monday through Friday 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.
