A fairy tale mashup! Stephen Sondheim (music/lyrics) and James Lapine (book) turn the Brothers Grimm upside down, shake the stories around, crash characters into one another, and dare to ask the question: “What happens after Happily Ever After?”
The story follows a Baker and his wife who wish to have a child, Cinderella who wishes to attend the King's Festival, and Jack who wishes his cow would give 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. Everyone's wish is granted, but the consequences of their actions return to haunt them later with disastrous results.
