Into The Woods. The twisted fairy tale play.


message 408: by Kyra (new)

It's like, a mash up of fairy tales.


message 410: by Kyra (new)

Kyra (Nikara) | 1053 comments "Into the Woods is a musical with music and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim and book by James Lapine. It debuted in San Diego at the Old Globe Theatre in 1986, and premiered on Broadway in 1987. Bernadette Peters' performance as the Witch and Joanna Gleason's portrayal of the Baker's Wife brought acclaim to the production during its original Broadway run. Into the Woods won several Tony Awards, including Best Score, Best Book, and Best Actress in a Musical (Joanna Gleason), in a year dominated by The Phantom of the Opera. The musical has been produced many times, with a 1988 national tour, a 1990 West End production, a 1991 television production, a 1997 tenth anniversary concert, a 2002 Broadway revival and a 2010 London revival.[1] The musical intertwines the plots of several Brothers Grimm fairy tales and follows them further to explore the consequences of the characters' wishes and quests. The main characters are taken from the stories of Little Red Riding Hood, Jack and the Beanstalk, Rapunzel, and Cinderella, tied together by a more original story involving a baker and his wife and their quest to begin a family, most likely taken from the original story of Rapunzel by the Brothers Grimm. It also includes references to several other well-known tales."

Sonds cool!!!!!!! XD

I know, right?! I was the only one who wanted to be Gestan (or however you spell that) in our mini play Beauty and the Beast. I had fun embarrassng myself. :)

Robin | 1223 comments Mod
He's got such an awesome song! But it's spelled 'Gaston'.


message 415: by Kyra (new)

Kyra (Nikara) | 1053 comments That is seriously awesome. I'm envious.


message 416: by Mel (new)

Mel | 956 comments Ditto.


message 417: by Mel (new)

Mel | 956 comments YOU GUYS!!! :D We have a new member! Hi Tobi! :)

Robin | 1223 comments Mod
What? Where?!

Jocelyn (joc113) | 1326 comments Mod
Golly, I'm actually here this time!!!! Briefly, anyway. Kyra, I'm in Milwaukee, and I'm listening to Pandora with my cousins. Aspen and Oakley are currently pillow-fighting, while I shelter under the desk and Kiana flies in circles on the swivel chair. I think I own the Into the Woods music, Robin. My uncle was in a production of it once, I think.

Hi, Tobi!

That's cool, Ducky. They cast me as the Baker's Wife. Apparently she's the main female lead. She like, has to go find stuff to break a witch's curse to have a kid. However, I'm praying to god they don't make me go out at the end like it's staged. "The baker's wife walks out, very pregnant, to see Cinderella and her prince."
No. Sorry, but no.

FIGHT, DUCKY!! JOIN THE BATTLE!

HI TOBI! Wherever you are...


message 421: by Kyra (new)

Kyra (Nikara) | 1053 comments TOBI!!! Didn't you join the Faerie Tale RP group??? I think I noticed you on there...
HI!!!!!!!!!!!!

Robin, that's freaking awesome. Seriously. I would beg to come to your performance but seeming as how I'm a nearly nine hour flight away from you, that may be hard... X'D


message 422: by Kyra (new)

Kyra (Nikara) | 1053 comments UGH!!! Pregnant. I take that back, the fact you are lead female is awesome.


message 423: by Robin (new)

Robin | 1223 comments Mod
I'm hoping Mr. Hunter will cut that bit. He cut the kiss in last year's musical.


message 424: by Mel (new)

Mel | 956 comments CONGRATS ROBIN!!! :D You're gonna be fantabulous! ;)


message 425: by Robin (new)

Robin | 1223 comments Mod
I don't REALLY understand why they cast me as they did, because I know one of the other girls and she's amazing. But thanks. :)


message 426: by Mel (new)

Mel | 956 comments Bye guys! See ya possibly Saturday afternoon! :) Or if not, Sunday for sure. ;)


message 427: by Kyra (new)

Kyra (Nikara) | 1053 comments Bye Mel!!! It's probably too late for good-byes by now, but I'm gonna say bye anyways!!!!!!! XD


message 428: by Robin (new)

Robin | 1223 comments Mod
LATES! Yeah. You won't see this until you get back. But it's the thought that counts! :)


message 429: by Kyra (new)

Kyra (Nikara) | 1053 comments LOL, exactly!!!
OMG!!! I sent Ducky a very long vent e-mail about this, but I'm still incredibly shocked by the eighth Artemis Fowl book. I can't believe (view spoiler)


message 430: by Robin (new)

Robin | 1223 comments Mod
XD Oh, how we feel emotions towards fictional characters.


message 431: by Kyra (new)

Kyra (Nikara) | 1053 comments It's the trademark of a good author. If a character gets hurt or dies and you don't feel anything, the author didn't do such a good job on that character.


message 432: by Robin (new)

Robin | 1223 comments Mod
I...I haven't cried in YEARS. SD thinks that's weird. But I haven't cried since...Fourth grade? I think.


message 433: by Kyra (new)

Kyra (Nikara) | 1053 comments I've cried once or twice since fourth grade, but not over books. I haven't cried over a book since second grade. Except for this one. It really was my absolute favorite book series EVER.


message 434: by Robin (new)

Robin | 1223 comments Mod
Oh, I haven't cried over a book since then, either! It was when I read Bridge to Terabithia.


message 435: by Kyra (new)

Kyra (Nikara) | 1053 comments I'll hafta read that one, then. Now I'm curious... XD


message 436: by Robin (new)

Robin | 1223 comments Mod
It was so sad for my six year old self.


message 437: by Kyra (new)

Kyra (Nikara) | 1053 comments Everything was sad when I was six. I cried over every little thing. Not books, though. I could usually convince myself they weren't real. Except for this one book I read in second grade... oh, what was it called?... Mrs. Frisby. Yes, that's it. Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of Nimh. I cried so hard over that book.


message 438: by Robin (new)

Robin | 1223 comments Mod
I haven't read it.
I was never really a crier. Like, I would sometimes cry when I was little and my mum would yell. Or if I was super over tired or getting sick than sometimes I would. But growing up with three older brothers teaches you to be strong.


message 439: by Kyra (new)

Kyra (Nikara) | 1053 comments I'm the oldest, and my little brother wasn't very competitive in his younger days. Therefore, I grew up in an environment that wouldn't mind if I cried or not, so I felt free to cry whenever I was upset. That attitude kinda dried out by the time I was seven, though.


message 440: by Mel (new)

Mel | 956 comments Hey guys! :D

LTC. Go there. I'm serious. 2013: GO TO LTC! It is the best place EVER. Take my word for it.

Kyra (Nikara) | 1053 comments MEL'S BACK!!!!!!!! HOORAY!!!!!!!!
Checked out the website, it sounds really cool. I'd love to give it a go. Only problem is, it's in New Jersey... or do they have a location in California???
So, how was it???


message 442: by Mel (new)

Mel | 956 comments It was the most amazing place is the ENTIRE WORLD! :D Everybody is incredibly friendly and hilarious. XD I learned a lot of stuff too. :) ;) :D I'm going to apply for a job there as a Junior Counselor for next year. Fingers crossed! :()

I don't think there is one in California. :( If you're ever in New Jersey in July, though, you should definitely come. ;)

This time, I am well and truly back. YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *happy dance* I think I may even be here for TWO WEEKS!! *gasp!* Except for the time I go to the state fair and spend the night at my grandparents' house...
Anyway, two weeks is a REALLY long time in the summer!!

Jocelyn (joc113) | 1326 comments Mod
Indeed.


message 448: by Simply (new)

Simply (ninjaofthekeyboard) Tell you what. I went to camp with Lilli, and I'm convinced this RP is just as epic as she says, so I beg to ask THE question...

May I join?


message 449: by Robin (new)

Robin | 1223 comments Mod
Sure! I mean, I'm positive Ducky wouldn't have a problem with that. Just...Oh god, this is getting to be more and more of an outlandish request each time someone joins.
Just read the threads, please? That way you get to know the charries and what's going on to everyone.


message 450: by Mel (new)

Mel | 956 comments Hi!!! :D Just give us a chance. (Ahem. Toby.) ;)
