| We're going Into the Woods |
The theatre is abuzz with the final preparations for this Friday's opening of the Tony Award winning and crowd favourite, Into the Woods. This production promises to be one of our biggest in recent history in terms of set intricacy, lighting, costume, quality of voice and precision of staging.
Below are photos of the set build, rehearsals and lighting levels:
