Nelson Youth Theatre presents classic fairytale smash hit Into the Woods by Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine!
If you go Into the Woods today you're sure of a big surprise ...if you go Into the Woods today you'd better go in disguise!
Have you ever wondered what it's like to be in a Fairytale Land? Wonder no more!
Into the Woods combines the iconic stories of Little Red Ridinghood, Cinderella, Rapunzel and Jack (the giant killer), with the tale of a childless baker and his wife. Their intertwining quests into the woods result in a twistedly funny, musical about the consequences of “happily ever after.”
Calling all kids! Dress up as your favourite fairy tale character at the Oct 4 matinee performances (10am and 2pm) and win great prizes for the best dressed boys and girls.

"Pirates of Penzance" follows the fortunes of Frederic, a young lad who is mistakenly apprenticed to the Pirate King. When Frederic falls for the lovely Mabel, whose father is the very model of a modern Major General, a tempest brews on the sea of love.
Full of roving rogues and dazzling damsels in distress, it's a treasure chest full of mischievous musical mayhem. A topsy-turvy tale of love and duty highlighted by the famous strains of "Poor Wandering One," "I Am the Very Model of a Modern Major-General," "Oh, Is There Not One Maiden Breast" and more.
