Any chance of Into the Woods tour starring movie cast?

Now that Into the Woods is a smash movie, a tour of the original stage show (in case you didn't know it was originally a stage show) starring the movie cast seems like a no-brainer. Would they be able to afford a big orchestra, though? How many cities does a tour have to be to make money?

They could call the tour INTO THE WOODS LIVE. At the end of the tour it could come to Broad Way and collect a million Tonies.

I don't know If you're joking about this but I could see it happening. I bet it will.

It's the oblivious next step.

You can tell watching the movie that the cast was more like a family so they would totally love to do a tour and be together doing this material they clearly adore. When could it start? It should be by summer to cash in on the movie's huge success after it wins so many Oscars. How many Oscars is the minimum to spawn a big successful tour?

I think five Oscars is the minimum for a big tour, but if they win a couple of Golden Globes I bet they could send out a non-eq one.

I hope they film it in 3D like the GLEE Tour.

I think Meryl is probably Eq. Don't know about the rest of the cast of the movie, but if they can't get everybody there is no point in doing this tour and I don't know why they would bother.

Is Meryl did it as an Equity guest artist, maybe she could get a Special Oscar for the tour. Or another Kennedy Center Honor or something.

Will she sing "No More"?

It'd be cool if they recorded a highlights tour CD. I'd like a "No More" duet remix with Meryl and Meghan Trainor.

I would rather Lea Michele is Into the Woods: In 3D: In 4D: On Ice: Arena Tour Live Experience.

Maybe she could replace Christine Baranski in the final leg of the tour.

If Lea Michele is doing it, I hope they add in some songs from Funny Girl as a pre-Broadway engagement.

That doesn't even make sense. But "Don't Stop Believing" would be a great song for the curtain call.

Do you think the entire cast would stage door? I bet they would, but just not between shows.

Would Meryl be out of the show on matinees? Who would be her alternate?

Does anybody have the link to the COMPLETE history of Into the Woods?

I. Told. You. All.

Emily Blunt on Vulture:

So would you feel comfortable doing a live production of Into the Woods? Maybe not a full theatrical production, but a reading?

"To take it on the road? Or on Broadway? I wonder if we would be allowed? That would be kind of amazing! I would be up for it."
