What a cast. If you are wondering which Into The Woods cast recording to buy.look no further.
Prompt delivery and arrived in perfect condition. Once again the item proved to be precisely what I wanted and the service was, as always, exceptional.
And she has printed out the lyrics to many of the songs and sings them almost constantly throughout the day. My 7 year-old and I absolutely LOVE this production. She had already been exposed to all the fairy tales touched on in the play, and because of the excellent story-telling, has begun to seek out other retold fairy tales in literature.
However, this is still a highly reccomendable CD with exquisite music and I think you will like it.(P.S. It interlocks 5 different fairy tales : 4 well-known(Cinderella, Red Riding-Hood , Rapunzel, and Jack and the Beanstalk) and 1 original tale (a baker and his wife) The musical is a really sunny tale in the 1st act but in the 2nd act, many characters are trampled by a giant who was the wife of the one in Jack and the Beanstalk. The Broadway Revival Cast and the London Cast are both dreadful, so if you have a choice, take this one) Most people my age have never heard of this truly wonderful composition. This opened at the Martin Beck Theatre in November of 1987 and was a success lasting for 2 years.
I'm sure that when I do, I'll be able to enjoy the music better. This is the kind of musical best experienced on stage, and I haven't yet.
