“Into the Woods: In Concert will satisfy Ontario audiences’ hunger for a real musical” – Kelly Nestruck, Globe and Mail
“This is the first live in-person show I performed since everything closed down for the COVID-19 pandemic. I’m so grateful we got to do this incredible show outdoors in stunning Springwater Provincial Park, traditional territory of and managed by Beausoleil First Nation. It was so poignant to reflect on the show’s themes of community and responsibility for the implications of our actions, especially in such a gorgeous natural setting and in this singular time.” — Derek
Nestled whimsically within one of Barrie’s beautiful forest parks, TIFT’s hit production of Into the Woods returns by popular demand in a new outdoor setting for a unique and magical experience.
Enjoy the masterful songs of Stephen Sondheim and become immersed in the fantastical world of these beloved Brothers Grimm characters as they search for their ‘happily ever after,’ quite literally, in the woods.
