Roxy Regional Theatre begins 40th Season on Thursday, September 15th with “Into the Woods”

Clarskville's Roxy Regional TheatreClarksville, TN – The wait is nearly over… Next week brings the highly-anticipated opening of our 40th Anniversary Season here at the Roxy Regional Theatre!  Do you have your tickets yet?

Venture into a fairytale mash-up with us and find out what happens after the happily ever afters with “Into the Woods”, opening Thursday, September 15th, 2022 at 7:00pm.  (Please note: Due to positive COVID-19 cases in our cast and crew preventing adequate rehearsal time, the original opening date of this production was postponed by one week.)

“Be careful what you wish for” seems to be the ongoing theme in Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine’s Brothers Grimm inspired musical, directed by Emily Ruck with music direction by Tyler Saunders.  The story follows The Baker and his wife, who wish to have a child; Cinderella, who wishes to go to the King’s Festival; and Jack, who wishes his cow would give some 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, along the way meeting a host of characters including Little Red, the Wolf, Rapunzel, and two princes.  By the end of the first act, everyone has gotten their wish and will seemingly live happily ever after… but in Act II, when Jack’s beanstalk brings them a visit from an angry Giant, we see how the consequences of their actions haunt them in disastrous ways.
 
Starring Michael Floriano and Rachel Lind as The Baker and his Wife, Leah Mossman as Cinderella, and Michael Ricciardone as Jack, “Into the Woods” features Stacy A. Turner as The Witch, Donald Groves as The Narrator and Mysterious Man, Zoe Fox as Little Red Ridinghood, Ariana Perlson as Rapunzel, Sam Alan Johnson as Cinderella’s Prince and the Wolf, David Ridley as Rapunzel’s Prince, Jama Bowen as Jack’s Mother and Cinderella’s Mother, Emily Ruck and Brett Vance as Cinderella’s Stepmother and Father, Olivia White and Faith Konty as Cinderella’s stepsisters Florinda and Lucinda, Meghann Shoulders as Granny and The Giant’s Wife, Alexandria Smith as Sleeping Beauty, Katie Stafford as Snow White, and David Graham as the puppeteer behind Jack’s cow, Milky White (designed and constructed by Zachary Parker).
