I was surprised to read they've never produced Into the Woods before. Seems like a natural for a theater in a park....

I'm sure they won't be the only regional theatre trying to cash in on the popularity of the film next year.

It sounds really good! Laura Benanti had talked in December about maybe doing "My Fair Lady" somewhere in the Midwest. Could this production be it? http://www.broadway.com/buzz/173307/laura-benanti-on-her-sexy-sound-of-music-role-getting-personal-on-her-solo-cd/

Wouldn't surprise me, but I am willing to guess she was talking about the Guthrie production, which I don't think she is doing.

Here's another story. No news on casting, but a nice quote about Rob McClure.
