Into The Woods Jr


Be careful what you wish for, as Stephen Sondheim’s and James Lapine’s cockeyed fairytale comes to life in this adaptation of their groundbreaking, Tony Award-winning musical.  Into the Woods JR. features all of your favorite characters — Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, Jack (and his beanstalk) and the Witch — in this lyrically rich retelling of classic Brothers Grimm fables.

The musical centers on a baker and his wife, who wish to have a child; Cinderella, who wishes to attend the King’s festival; and Jack, who wishes his cow would give milk. When the baker and his wife learn that they cannot have a child because of a witch’s curse, the two set off on a journey to break the curse, and wind up changed forever.

Everybody Wins!

To help give back, CAP has chosen to hold a book drive for Everybody Wins! Iowa during our public shows the first two weekends in June. Everybody Wins! Iowa (EWI) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to ensuring children’s success in school and life through weekly one-to-one read-aloud experiences with caring adults. Through these ongoing read-aloud sessions, elementary students in the program use reading as a vehicle to develop their social and emotional learning, build positive relationships with their mentors, and practice reading in a low-pressure setting, which prepares them for success in school. When you donate a book to Everybody Wins! Iowa at one of our shows, we’ll give you a ticket for a FREE popcorn!

Everybody Wins! Iowa has a book list available on their Amazon Wish List.
