Di2, I'm a college musical theater major double majoring in direction and performance.

I don't think you understood what I was saying. We're currently doing a production of 'Into the Woods'. The director has decided that it would work well post-WWII, which I agree. It doesn't HAVE to be set in a Bavarian forest. During the post-WWII era, psychotherapy was very big. So, trying to figure out how to set the show in that time period and still have fairy tales, the show begins with hypnosis and men and women from the 50's become the characters we all know and love from the show.

Not a SINGLE line has been changed. Not a SINGLE line has been added. We have just made our own interpretation of the show that I think works well.

Interpretation is important in theater.
