Landor Celebrates 15 Years with Into the Woods

Landor Celebrates 15 Years with Into the Woods

Date: 6 August 2009

This September Clapham’s favourite pub theatre reaches the grand old age of 15 and will be celebrating with a revival of the first ever musical to be produced at the venue, Into the Woods. The classic Stephen Sondheim show, which runs from 17 September to 17 October, will be directed by the Landor’s artistic director Robert McWhir.

The full cast has yet to be announced, but will include Lori Haley Fox, who will be taking a sabbatical from the role of Rosie in Mamma Mia! on Broadway to play the Witch. Also joining the cast is Leo Andrew, who will play the Baker. Into the Woods will be Andrew’s third show at the Landor, following his performance of Ben Stone in the venue’s critically acclaimed production of Follies in 2006, also directed by McWhir.

McWhir has been artistic director at the theatre since 2001. Last year his production of I Love You Because was awarded the Whatsonstage Theatregoers’ Choice Award for Best Off-West End Production.
