Bronxville High School Musical, "Into The Woods," is February 6 - 8, 2020: Link to Tickets
By Karin Drakenberg
Feb. 5, 2020: Bronxville High School students will perform "Into The Woods" February 6, 7 and 8, including a special children's matinee on Saturday at 2pm. Tickets are on sale now.
As in any fairy tale, this story also begins with the words "Once Upon a Time." In this "All-In-One" mish-mash of a fantasy fairy tale musical, we meet all of our favorite characters from the classic sagas.
The plot is fast-paced and very clever, with the different characters crossing paths in the most unpredictable and magical ways, but with unexpected, surprising, and even ill-fated results.
In the first act, we are introduced to the initial characters; a baker and his wife, who wish to have a child; Cinderella, who would like nothing else than 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.
There are eighty-two actors, twenty-two in the orchestra pit, all students from Bronxville High School. There are also twenty-one tech/behind the scenes students, working tirelessly to create and build the sets, props, and costumes for the show, and to make it all come together. It's a team effort, really.
The Tony Award-winning musical "Into the Woods" is one of Sondheim's most popular works, and this timeless, relevant piece brings all the favorite storybook characters together to tell the story of wishes, family, and the choices we make.
The play is directed by Bronxville High School Choral Director Pamela Simpson.

The Bronxville Public Library traces its origins back to 1875, when it was a small lending library housed in a room attached to the “Bronxville Model School.” The Library was officially chartered in 1906 and moved into the Village Hall Building. The needs of the library grew with the town and, in 1942, a new standalone building was erected, which is where the Library is today. Over the years, the Library was renovated and expanded to meet the needs of the community.
The Library has wonderful resources for adults and children and offers a comfortable and relaxing environment. The Library also houses a fine art collection, consisting principally of Bronxville painters and sculptors.
The Library offers special events, art exhibitions, and programs for adults, young adults and children. All events are open to the public, unless otherwise indicated.
