Parental Guidance Notice – Into the Woods
Our production of Into the Woods is faithful to the original script and score by Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine. While the show begins with familiar fairy-tale characters and lighthearted moments, Act II takes a more mature turn. Characters face loss, temptation, betrayal, and difficult moral choices, and several scenes contain thematic material that may be challenging for younger audiences.
Because of these mature themes, we recommend parental discretion for children in 4th grade and under. Parents should use their judgment in deciding whether younger students are ready to engage with the story’s deeper layers.
We are confident that Into the Woods offers a rich and meaningful theatrical experience, but we want families to be prepared for the content so they can make the best choice for their children.
