At the Mayfield Village Civic Center =96 6622 Wilson Mills Rd., Mayfield
Village Ohio (At the corner of Wilson Mills and S.O.M. Center Roads)

The Fairmount Performing Arts Conservatory presents the Tony Award-winning
musical INTO THE WOODS (Best Score - Stephen Sondheim, Best Book - James
Lapine). The play starts with the stories of Cinderella, Jack and the
Beanstalk, Little Red Riding Hood, and Rapunzel, all tied together with a
new story of the Baker and his Wife, who are trying to conceive a child.

However, just as the audience did not previously know that all of the
stories were related through the Baker and his Wife, the play soon disclose=
s
many twists and changes of fate for each of the characters as they
experience the repercussions of their "happily ever afters."

The Conservatory is multiple casting several roles in the production to
provide opportunities for its talented cast to play lead and supporting
roles. "To multiple cast on this scale is a first for us," says
Sternfeld. "Last
summer we multiple cast the Narrators and Potiphar's Wife in *Joseph and th=
e
Amazing Technicolor
Dreamcoat<http://www.fredsternfeld.com/josephromeojulietfpac08.htm>
* . For this production we have five sets of Cinderella's stepmothers and
stepsisters, who will have three performances each during the run of the
show, as well as four Little Red Ridinghoods, three Jacks, two Cinderellas
and more. It will be a fun challenge, made doable by utilizing a team of
outstanding assistant directors to help out - Erin McCardle, Natalie Green,
Randi Sternfeld and Christianne Beffel."

The show is directed by Sternfeld with musical direction by Mike Caraffi,
choreography by Christianne Beffel, Set and Lighting Design by Ben Needham
and Costume Design by Craig Tucker.
