Signature Seminar: To Journey's End with Into the Woods

October 20 – November 6, 2022

Travel deep Into the Woods for a five part behind-the-scenes seminar about the making of Sondheim’s fairytale adventure at Signature. Begin your journey with a special meeting with the director and creative team that delves into the themes of the show and the concepts for the design, and travel all the way through the dress rehearsal where the musical comes together. The way is clear and the light is good to go Into the Woods and be home before dark!

  • Our Little World: Creating the World of Into the Woods
    • October 20 – 7PM-8PM

  • The Most Beautiful Tunes: The Music of Into the Woods
    • October 27 – 7PM-8:30PM
    • Join Jon Kalbfleisch, Signature’s Resident Music Director, for an engaging journey through Sondheim’s Tony Award-winning score, highlighting exactly how Mr. Sondheim’s music communicates meaning and narrative to our listening ears.

  • The Way is Clear, The Light is Good: Tech Rehearsal
    • November 2 – 7PM-9PM
